Defect
Water intrudes into the magnetic switch that controls current flow to the starter motor. This causes the switch contacts to rust and malfunction. Continued use allows the contacts to overheat to the point where current to the starter motor can no longer be interrupted, and in the worst case the starter motor may burn out.
Corrective action
Replace the magnetic switch on all vehicles with the corrected part.
