    Default 07" Suburban rear wiper

    Just found out yesterday after the new soft cloth car wash ripped my rear wiper off! There is a GM service something(they are not calling it a recall) but a problem with the rear wiper and car washes. Anyway, GM is going to fix and replace it for me for free. The reason I am posting it is because when I first called the dealership they said that there was nothing about it in the system but my great service people checked further and found it. So beware of the carwash!

    It’s called a service bulletin.

    It is made in some cases to provide techs how a repair should be made.
