Recalls

On certain vehicles, water may drain from the windshield cowl area and potentially collect in the area of the wiper motor breathing hole.

If the wiper motor is not operating, water could potentially enter the wiper motor through the breathing hole.

If this occurs, over time, it could result in corrosion and/or an electrical conduction failure, both of which could result in the wiper motor not operating.

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

Correction: Dealers will replace the wiper motor with an upgraded wiper motor that will prevent water intrusion.
