1995 Chevrolet Lumina APV Complaints

FAILURE OF WINDSHIELD WIPERS. FIRST THEY WOULD ONLY WORK IF IT WASN'T RAINING (CLEANING WINDSHIELD), NOW THEY HAVE STOPPED ALL TOGETHER. THIS HAS CAUSED INCIDENCE OF BEING STRANDED AND NEAR CRASHES EVEN ON CHRISTMAS DAY WITH MY TWO CHILDREN AND HAVING TO GET RIDES TO AND FROM WORK. THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS FOR ALL OTHER 1995 CHEVROLETS BUT NOT THE APV SEEMS AS THOUGH SINCE THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING ON THIS VEHICLE THE RECALL SHOULD BE ON IT ALSO. I COULD HEAR THE MOTOR TRYING TO WORK AND WOULD SOMETIMES BE ABLE TO MANUALLY PUSH THE WIPERS BACK AND FORTH TO GET THEM WORKING AGAIN, BUT NOW THEY ARE LOCKED UP. *JB

I HAVE A 1995 CHEVY LUMINA VAN AND THE STEEL FRAME UNDER THE DRIVERS SEAT KEEPS BREAKING. I WELDED THE FIRST SEAT 3 TIMES UNTIL IT WAS SO BAD I HAD TOP BUY ANOTHER ONE. THE SECOND SEAT I GOT WAS THE SAME AND I AM ABOUT TO WELD IT A SECOND TIME ALSO. I KNOW OF ANOTHER PERSON WITH A 1992 LUMINA VAN WHO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT HASN'T BEEN RECALLED YET. THANKS . *NM

WINDSHIELD WIPERS ONLY WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO. ON GOING PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT VAN. CHEVY SAYS NO RECALL WAS ISSUED AND IT'S NOT THEIR PROBLEM. I HAVE REPLACED THE MOTOR AND STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I CAN NOT DRIVE IF IT IS RAINING DUE TO WIPERS MAY WORK BUT THEY COULD STOP WORKING AGAIN AT ANY TIME. ALSO WIPER FLUID DOES NOT WORK WHEN WIPERS DO NOT WORK. I CAN NOT TELL YOU HOW MANY FAILURES DUE TO IT HAPPENS EVERYTIME IT RAINS/SNOWS/SLEETS. MEANING THEY MAY WORK OR MAY NOT BUT IF THEY DO WORK THEY ALWAYS STOP. *JB

WHEN I BOUGHT MY VAN IN MAY OF 2004 I BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS ONLY WORKING SPORADICALLY, I THOUGHT I WOULD CHECK INTO IT AND SEE IF MIGHT BE A RECALL REGARDING MY VEHICLE. WHEN I WENT ONLINE TO SEARCH I FOUND THE EXACT PROBLEM I WAS HAVING AND CHECKED TO SEE IF I WAS COVERED, I DISCOVERED MULTIPLE GM RECALLS THAT COVERED THE PROBLEM I WAS HAVING, AND ONLINE IT SEEMED AS THOUGH MY VAN QUALIFIED. WHEN I PHONED A DEALER WITH MY VIN #, I WAS TOLD I WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. I BELIEVE THAT MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM COVERED BY THE RECALL OF THOUSANDS OF OTHER GM VEHICLES. ALSO, I HAVE REPLACED THE WIND SHIELD WIPER MOTOR AND STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *JB

WHILE DRIVING IN A RAINSTORM WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED INTERMITTENTLY. *AK
