- 2003 LeSabre
Hello;
About a year ago, my 2003 Buick LeSabre's wiper motor died. I had it replaced, and it died again in about a month. Assuming the first motor was defective, my garage replaced it again. Fast forward: the FIFTH motor died after 3 weeks. I'm assuming that it's unlikely that all five motors were defective. And I'm tempted to believe that the column switch is defective. BUT--if that's the case, why did each motor work for a period of time, then die? It would seem to me that if it was the switch, no replacement motor would work at all. Can anyone give me some advice on this? This is a great car, but it's worthless if I never know when the wipers are going to fail. Thank you.
