Ongoing problem with windshield wipers working intermittently since 85,000 miles, until not operating at this present time. Dealer and manufacturer were not notified at this time. Feel free to provide any further information.
Windshield wipers work intermittently during operation. Dealer and manufacturer were notified.. consumer states the manufacturer should extend the recall 98043 on all Chevrolet vehicles.

Windshield wipers become inoperative intermittently. This happened during a heavy downpour and I almost crashed. Apparently there was a recall for a GMC sonoma for similar symptoms.
When the windshield wipers are activated during a rain storm they work sometimes. But when it is not raining they work fine. Dealer has been contacted.
Wipers have quit operating approx six times over past 2 months--no cause found. Pc board removed and reinstalled, wipers then operate normally for a few days.
Sometimes windshield wipers come on and sometimes they don't. also, occasionally wipers quit working in the middle of operation. The dealer is aware of the problem. Problem has not been corrected.
Windshield wipers do not work 80% of the time. The wipers come on and then stop. Sometimes they go faster than they should. Sometimes the water does not come out. Dealer cannot duplicate the problem.
