## What is wrong

In certain vehicles registered and operated in areas where road salt is used on the roadways during winter months for extended time periods \(Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland\-Labrador\), water may drain from the windshield cowl area onto one of the windshield wiper transmission link joints. Over time, this could result in corrosion and/or wear to the joint, which could result in the separation of the wiper link ball from its corresponding socket. If separation were to occur, the windshield wipers could become inoperative, which could limit the driver’s visibility under certain operating conditions which may increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will relocate drain holes in the windshield cowl and install a wiper module with revised joints.
