What Happened
Your vehicle's windshield wiper arms are the parts that connect the wiper blades to your windshield. In some 2020-2021 F-150, Expedition, and 2020-2022 Super Duty F-series, as well as 2020-2021 Lincoln Navigator models, these arms can break, causing the wipers to stop working.
Risk if Unfixed
If the wiper arms break, you'll lose visibility while driving in the rain or snow, which could lead to a crash.
Free Fix
Your Ford dealer will replace both front windshield wiper arms with new ones, at no cost to you. You'll get a notification letter with the details and should schedule the repair as soon as possible.
