The problem
When operated at a high speed, the front wiper arm connection to the wiper drive pivot shaft can loosen causing the windshield wiper system to fail.
The risk
Loss of wiper function results in reduced visibility for the driver in inclement weather conditions and increases the risk of an accident.
The fix
Dealers will replace the defective wiper systems with a different wiper system design.
