NHTSA recall 12V151000
Visibility · General Motors, LLC
Details
What's wrong: Snow or ice buildup on the windshield or on the wiper may restrict the movement of the wiper arm, causing the wiper arm to loosen and cause the wiper to become inoperative.
Why it matters: If this occurs, driver visibility could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will tighten the wiper arm nuts, free of charge. The safety recall began on April 20, 2012.
