Ford has issued its third recall of the month. This one affects more than 600,000 Ford Motor Company trucks and SUVs, which the National Highway Traffic Administration issued due to potentially faulty windshield wiper arms.
According to the NHTSA, stripped wiper arm splines are causing the blades to come loose, not work, or detach from the vehicle, which can happen with either the driver- or passenger-side arms. The blade could also operate slowly or sporadically, which is never good when they’re needed. Visibility is important, especially in inclement weather conditions when poor visibility could lead to a collision.
