The hazard
On certain trucks, the passenger side windshield wiper linkage rod may separate from either the wiper motor drive arm or the passenger side pivot assembly. If the linkage separates, the passenger side wiper arm will no longer operate which could lead to reduced driver visibility. Decreased driver visibility may increase the risk of a crash possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death. Correction: Dealers will install a redesigned windshield wiper linkage assembly.
