On certain vehicles, the windshield wiper motor may be susceptible to salt spray intrusion which could cause the wiper motor connector to overheat and ignite. A vehicle fire could result in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the connector plate on the windshield wiper motor.
Certain vehicles affected may contain tie rod assemblies, model 20-EDL, manufactured by TRW. These tie rods may display premature wear that could eventually lead to the ball stud seperating from the socket assembly causing a possible loss of steering control. Correction: Dealer will replace the tie rod assemblies.
The steer axle tie rod ball-socket assembly ball stud may separate from the socket due to premature wear. If this event occurs, there will be no steering control to the right steer axle with the potential for a vehicle crash. Correction: suspect tie rod ball-socket assemblies will be inspected and replaced as required by dealers.
