Details

What's wrong: On certain motor homes, the windshield wiper motor may have been produced without grease being applied to the output shaft gear.

Why it matters: After a period of continuous use on the high speed setting, lack of grease on the output shaft gear may cause the gear to distort or fracture during operation resulting in a loss of wiper function. Inoperative wipers under inclement weather conditions could cause a crash due to impaired visibility.

The fix: Ford is conducting the owner notification and remedy for this campaign. Dealers will inspect the wiper motor for the presence of grease and grease the wiper motor gears if necessary. All vehicles have been remedied.
