The knurled pivot shaft (which operates the windshield wiper arm) is welded to a lever, which connects the linkage from the wiper motor. On certain vehicles, the weld at the pivot shaft to lever may fail. This failure can occur on either the right or left side causing the wiper arm to be inoperative for that side. This could result in obscured driver vision if the failure occurred during inclement weather. Correction: A stall test will be performed on the wiper system to validate the integrity of the suspect weld. All wiper assemblies which fail the stall test will be replaced.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 1999093.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the International 9900, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on an International: 314 in the register, and 240 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 1999.
