1999 Chevrolet Tahoe Visibility

VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME DEFECT WITH ITS WINDSHIELD WIPERS AS STATED IN RECALL 03 V 159 000; BUT THIS VEHICLE NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL DUE TO VIN. *AK

PROBLEMS WITH WINDSHIELD WIPER EQUIPMENT WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. *MR THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WERE WORKING, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN STOPPED WORKING FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS, THEN HAD COME BACK ON. THERE WAS A RECALL THAT DID NOT INCLUDE THE CONSUMERS VIN. A COMPUTER CHIP WAS FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE. THE WIPERS WERE INTERMITTENT AND HESITATED IN THE RAIN FROM ONE SECOND UP TO THIRTY SECONDS AT NO PARTICULAR INTERVAL. *SCC *JB

CONSUMER STATES WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE INOPERATIVE WHEN WET. DEALER STATES VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUE TO VIN. *AK

-- FAULTY SOLDER JOINTS ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR CIRCUIT BOARD. MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE INTERMITTENTLY QUIT WORKING WHEN THE SWITCH IS TURNED ON. THIS IS HAZARDOUS TO DRIVING MY FAMILY DURING THE RAIN, DUE TO THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS NOT WORKING DURING HEAVY RAIN. *AK

I HAVE A 1999 (MANUFACTURED APRIL 1998) CHEVROLET TAHOE. WAS RETURNING HOME WITH FAMILY IN MIDDLE OF THUNDERSTORM, WHEN WINDSHIELD WIPERS TOTALLY STOPPED WORKING. HAD A HECK OF A TIME MAKING IT HOME SAFELY. IMMEDIATELY TOOK TAHOE TO DEALER, WHERE AFTER MIS-DIAGNOSIS OF PROBLEM, WAS FINALLY RESOLVED WITH REPLACEMENT OF $400 WIPER MOTOR. I KNOW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL OF 97 MODELS AND THIS WAS MANUFACTURED IN APRIL OF 1998. COULD THERE BE A LINK? CHEVROLET/GM HAS STATED IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS, THEY WILL NOT FIX THIS UNDER A SAFETY ISSUE, AND I AM ON MY OWN. NOT ONLY IS THIS THE 1ST VEHICLE I'VE EVER HAD A WIPER MOTOR GO BAD, BUT THAT COUPLED WITH THE RECALLS OF THE PRIOR YEAR'S ??? THAT'S MY COMPLAINT. *NLM

HEATER/AIR COND. FAN SWITCH FAILS TO ACTUATE FAN INTERMITENTLY, CAUSES WINDOWS TO FOG UP DURING RAIN OR COLD, IN WINTER CAN NOT DEFROST WINSHIELD. HAVE NOTICED SAME PROBLEM IN OTHER TAHOE'S FROM 1998 AND 1999 PRODUCTION YEARS. CREATES HAZERDOUS VISABILITY DURING DRIVING.*AK

THREE INDIVIDUALS AT MY WORK HAVE HAD THE KNOB FAIL WHICH PREVENTS THE DEFROSTER FROM WORKING CREATING A HAZARD WITH ICED WINDOWS. DEALER WAS SMUG AND NOTED THAT THEY REPLACE LOTS OF THESE. THE FAILURE OF THE KNOB IS INTERNAL TO THE MODULE AND PREVENTS AN EASY INEXPENSIVE FIX. REPAIR IS 285.00.*AK

OVER A TWO WEEK PERIOD BOTH SIDE VIEW MIRRORS FELL OFF THE VEHICLE. GM/CHEV. WOULD LIKE ME TO PURCHASE THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY FOR $280.00 EACH TIMES 2 OR $580.00. I CHECKED WITH AUTO PARTS RECYLCLERS THEY CAN'T KEEP THEM IN STOCK. IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. THE ADHESIVE WILL NOT STAND UP TO TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS.

POWER WINDOW IS COMPLETELY INOPERABLE, AND UNFORTUNATELY IS IN THE DOWN POSITION. 2000 SUBURBAN AT WORK-SAME PROBLEM EXCEPT R.R. WINDOW, AND IT IS IN THE UP POSITION.*AK
