Recall 2016104

The issue

On certain vehicles, the pin that attaches to the windshield wiper idler arm could strip. If the pin were to become stripped, it would result in the driver side windshield wiper to become inoperable. Loss of windshield wiping capability, 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 injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the the suspect idler arm of the windshield wiper assembly.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, les filets de la tige fixée au bras de renvoi d'essuie-glace pourraient être endommagés. Si cela se produit, l'essuie-glace du côté du conducteur pourrait cesser de fonctionner. Si ce problème survient un jour où il pleut/neige, cela pourrait nuire à la capacité du conducteur de voir la route et les autres usagers de la route, ce qui pourrait causer un accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer le bras de renvoi suspect des essuie-glaces.
