What is wrong

Certain sport utility and passenger vehicles exhibit a condition in which the windshield wiper motor could fail during use because of improper manufacture.

The risk

If this were to occur in severe weather, driver visibility could be reduced, which could result in a vehicle crash.

The fix

Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the wiper motor assembly. Owner notification began november 6, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact saturn at 1-[removed], prompt #3 or hummer at 1-[removed].

Notes from the manufacturer

Also, customers can contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-DOT (1-[removed]).
