"WASHINGTON - General Motors is recalling nearly 1.8 million more light trucks to repair windshield wipers that are prone to fail. This latest GM campaign means that about 3.5 million of the company's pickups, SUVs and vans will have been called back for the same problem during the past five years. The fix entails replacing the windshield wiper circuit board and motor cover. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says cracked solder joints on the circuit board cause wipers to fail intermittently or completely. The latest recall involves vehicles from the following models and years: 1994-97 Chevrolet C/K and GMC Sierra pickups; Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban; GMC Yukon and Suburban. 1995-97 Chevrolet Astro and GMC Safari; Chevrolet and GMC full-sized crew cabs. 1996-97 Chevrolet Blazer and GMC Jimmy; Chevrolet S10, GMC Sonoma and Isuzu Hombre. 1996 Oldsmobile Bravada. Troubled past In 1998, GM recalled about 1.7 million other light trucks from the 1994-96 model years for the wiper repair, company spokesman Jim Schell says. This year, the company offered the repair to owners of vehicles now being recalled. But with urging from NHTSA, GM made it a recall, effective in June. Schell says a supplier was responsible for the defect. He declined to name the supplier. Eight minor injuries were reported from crashes blamed on the problem before the 1998 recall and one since, he says. In another recall reported by NHTSA, GM is asking owners of nearly 45,000 Chevrolet TrailBlazer, GMC Envoy and Oldsmobile Bravada SUVs from the 2003 model year to return their vehicles for a brake line replacement. The left front brake pipe is scored and prone to break, the agency says.
