The issue
On certain motorhomes, the windshield wiper system may have been incorrectly installed and secured. This could result in the wiper system being loose, which could limit the driver’s visibility under certain conditions which may increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the wiper system to verify that the original recall repair was completed correctly, and will repair as necessary. Note: This recall supersedes recalls 2017-078 and 2017-172. A portion of vehicles repaired under the previous recall will require re-inspection and repair.
Description (français)
Dans certaines autocaravanes, le système d'essuie-glaces pourrait avoir été mal installé et mal fixé en place. Par conséquent, ce système pourrait être lâche, ce qui pourrait limiter la visibilité du conducteur dans certaines conditions. Cela pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter le système d'essuie-glaces afin de vérifier si les réparations dans le cadre du rappel initial ont été effectuées et si elles ont été effectuées correctement. Ils devront également effectuer les réparations nécessaires si elles n'ont pas été effectuées. Remarque : Le présent rappel remplace les rappels 2017-078 et 2017-172. Certains des véhicules réparés dans le cadre du rappel précédent devront subir une nouvelle inspection et de nouvelles réparations.
