Consumer had to replace the windshield wiper unit which cracked twice. She contacted the dealer and manufacturer, and was told that moisture got into the unit and caused the problem. The unit just stopped working with no warning. When replacing the switch the wipers didn't always come on.

Windshield wipers began to work intermitently. No particular pattern back in November of 2002. My Isuzu dealer said that there was a recall in effect but only up to the 1997 model year for the Isuzu Hombre. The defect is the printed circuit board built into the windshield wiper assembly. The cost was over $80 to replace and that was because my brother who is a mechanic performed the repair after the Isuzu dealership service department diagnosed the issue.
