What This Recall Means

Component

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:MOTOR

What Happened
Your vehicle's windshield wiper motor has a design flaw that can cause water to enter the motor and lead to corrosion, which may fail the electrical circuit breaker.
Risk if Unfixed
If the circuit breaker fails, your windshield wiper motor will stop working, making it harder to see while driving, especially in rainy conditions, which could increase the risk of an accident.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Dealers will inspect your wiper motor for corrosion, and either install a protective cover to prevent water entry or replace the motor if it's damaged. This service is free, and you don't have to pay a thing.
