Check your own vehicle. A recall applies only to vehicles within the affected build range. Enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. Recall repairs are free at a franchised dealer.

What NHTSA recorded

A tolerance mismatch in the crank assembly of the bosch windshield wiper motor could cause instantaneous separation of the crank from the linkage assembly in the left hand control arm assembly; this would make the system inoperable.

Possible consequence

Wiper failure during vehicle operation could reduce driver's ability to see the road, and creates a potential for an accident.

Remedy

Replace left hand control arm linkage assembly.
