What is wrong
The plastic cowl cover was not sealed to the body at the base of the windshield. Water can leak and reach the windshield wiper motor, causing internal corrosion and failure of the wiper motor.
The risk
Failure of the wiper motor results in reduced driver visibility in inclement weather and could result in an accident.
The fix
Dealers will install a new wiper motor cover.
