I contacted Chevrolet and they said that they had recalled 1995 and 1996 models for this problem. I know of two other vans that are the same model as mine, and they are having problems with their wipers also. I believe this is a manufacturing defect. This is a safety problem because you don't know when these wipers will stop!

The wipers have intermittent problems. You will turn them on with no results. Turning it on a couple more times in quick session will prove useless. Turn them on at a later time and they will work. This sounds simular to another recent GM recall. Please check out.
