GMC says there is a recall for 1996 GMC Jimmy for wiper problems like mine, but my auto was not included in recall. It is strange to me that my problems is identical to the others, but not one to recall. Is it possible they have made a mistake. Is my family safety not important as the other 1996 GMC Jimmy owners.

- Dardanelle, AR, USA

Windshield wipers stopped during a rain storm, this has happened 5 times previously. This problem was a recall on the 1995 Blazer and Jimmys, but not on the 1996 models even though it is the same part used on both years, according to a parts person at a GMC dealer ship. Fortunately no one in our family was injured. I am having the problem fixed at my expense, due to the fact that GMC will not pay for the defect. I feel I should be reimbursed for this for this dangerous defect, and this problem should be corrected, by recall, before serious injuries occur. Sincerly, ronald L keller
