On certain vehicles, the windshield wiper connecting linkage sockets may wear out prematurely due to insufficient greasing during assembly. This may lead to a separation of the linkage and loss of wiper function. Correction: Windshield wiper connecting linkages will be removed and replace with new links that are properly lubricated.
