Defect
In the wiper motor, insufficient application of waterproof sealant allows rainwater and other moisture to enter the motor and cause a short circuit. Additionally, improper welding of electrical circuit connections in some units may cause the welds to separate, resulting in a loss of continuity. In the worst case, the wipers may become inoperative.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the wiper motor's manufacturing date. On units identified as affected, replace the wiper motor with a conforming part.
