My 1997 Chevrolet Silverado P/U has a problum with the wipers they work some of the time and some of the time they do not work at all. Your web site says there is a recall for this problum (03V15900 your recall #) and when I contacted GM about it I was told by chris lamar that there was and to take to my local Chevrolet dealer for repair and then was told was not going to happen. Contacted GM once again and Mr. L amar said it did not cover my truck but in the first conversation with him he said that all GM full size P/U were recalled for the 97 model year from start of production to the end of production. When I spoke to his supervisor she said that because the truck was not purchased from a Chevrolet dealer that they would not nor ever would repair this truck under any now or future recalls. This is a low mileage truck and I am the secound owner.
