On certain vehicles, the hardware used to affix the windshield wiper linkage to the wiper motor may become loose over time. As a result, the bolt/nut may loosen to a point where the linkage detaches from the wiper motor, which would cause the wipers to stop functioning. Loss of windshield wiping capability, should it occur during a rainy/snowy day, may compromise the driver's ability to see the road and its users, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the windshield wiper linkage's nut and bolt.
