   COMPLAINT RECEIVED VIA E-MAIL. I HAVE A 1994 CHEVROLET PICKUP, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS HAVE STOPPED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN THE RAIN. I HEARD THROUGH A FRIEND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR MY TYPE OF TRUCK. THIS PROMPTED ME TO COME TO THIS SITE AND LOOK IT UP. I FOUND A RECALL WITH CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 03V159000. I THEN CALLED A LOCAL DEALER AND AFTER GIVING MY VIN #, I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE NO OPEN CAMPAIGNS ON THIS VEHICLE. I THEN CALLED THE 800 NUMBER FOR CHEVROLET THAT WAS ON THE REPORT AND WAS ALSO TOLD BY THEM THAT THERE WERE NO OPEN CAMPAIGNS ON MY VEHICLE. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS AN ANALYSIS DONE THAT PROBABLY PRODUCED A LIST ON VINS THAT WERE AFFECTED BY THIS RECALL. HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE WAS EXHIBITING THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS THOSE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. AT THE CURRENT TIME I DO NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES TO HAVE THE REPAIRS MADE. I BELIEVE THAT IF THIS PROBLEM RESULTED IN A RECALL OF THESE VEHICLES TO REPAIR THE CIRCUIT BOARD, AND MY VEHICLE WAS SHOWING THE SAME SYMPTOMS, THE COMPANY SHOULD AT LEAST EVALUATE THE PROBLEM TO SEE IF THIS WAS THE CAUSE OF MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS MALFUNCTIONING. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS WAS AN UNREASONABLE REQUEST. *AK (11/23/05) *SC I DO NOT REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE THAT I CALLED, HOWEVER IT WAS BETWEEN THE 2ND AND 20TH OF NOVEMBER 2004. I DID HOWEVER WRITE DOWN THE SERVICE REQUEST NUMBER GIVEN TO ME BY THE REPRESENTATIVE I SPOKE WITH. SERVICE REQUEST # 1-276472594
