What owners wrote
Windshield wipers failed in rain during hard downpour. I think the circuit board cracked liked the recalled chevrolerolet s-10s and chevrolet truck also made by GM.they recalled all chevy truck made at same plant as mine for wipers stopping.my hombree was made in USA by chevy. This is apox 100th time this has failed.
Dt: 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.
