Recall 2011189

The issue

On certain vehicles, the windshield wiper motor crank arm nut may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. If the nut loosens, it could result in a loss of windshield wiping capability which, should it occur during a rainy/snowy day, may compromise the driver's ability to see the road and its users, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will torque the wiper motor crank arm nut to specifications.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, l'écrou du bras de manivelle du moteur d'essuie-glace pourrait ne pas avoir été adéquatement serré lors du montage du véhicule. Si l'écrou se desserrait, les essuie-glaces pourraient cesser de fonctionner, ce qui, si cela se produisait lorsqu'il pleut ou qu'il neige, pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident endommageant des biens matériels ou blessant quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront serrer l'écrou de bras de vilebrequin de moteur d'essuie-glace conformément aux spécifications.
