This is not my personal vehicle, I work for an insurance company handling a claim in which two of our insured's employees were injured after losing control of their vehicle when the tread separated from the tire. A police report confirms this is how the incident occurred. I am reporting this as I am aware of these incidences ocurring with the steeltex, yet it is not part of the recall.

Intermittently windshield wiper circuit board malfunctions, causing windshield wipers not to work, affecting visibility, especially at night, and may result in a crash.

November 1998

Windshield wipers would not turn off. Turning the motor off was the only way to turn them off. The windshield wipers came on by themselves and will not stop, when they do stop they do not return to park.
