Recalls

In certain vehicles, water may drain from the windshield cowl area onto the windshield wiper transmission link joints.

Over time, this could result in corrosion and/or wear to the joint, which could result in the separation of the wiper link ball from its corresponding socket.

If separation were to occur, the windshield wipers could become inoperative, which could limit the driver’s visibility under certain operating conditions and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.

Correction: Dealers will relocate drain holes in the windshield cowl and install a wiper module with revised joints.

Note: This is an expansion of recall 2016-318 to include vehicles originally sold or registered in the province of British Columbia.
