What NHTSA recorded

Contact interference between the windshield wiper linkage and the motor output shaft nut causes linkage separation, resulting in failure of the system.

Possible consequence

Failure of the windshield wiper system reduces drivervisibility in inclement weather which could result in an accident.

Remedy

Remove and replace the windshield wiper linkage with a redesigned linkage that provides additional clearance with the wiper motor output shaft.
