Mack hardware used to secure the windshield wiper linkage to the wiper motor may not be sufficiently torqued, and may cause the windshield wiper linkage to detach from the wiper motor.
The short version
MACK TRUCKS, INC reported a problem with the windshield wiper/washer linkages. Here is what owners need to know.
HARDWARE USED TO SECURE THE WINDSHIELD WIPER LINKAGE TO THE WIPER MOTOR MAY NOT BE SUFFICIENTLY TORQUED, AND MAY CAUSE THE WINDSHIELD WIPER LINKAGE TO DETACH FROM THE WIPER MOTOR. AS A RESULT, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WILL NOT FUNCTION.
IF THIS OCCURS, UNDER CERTAIN DRIVING CONDITIONS THE DRIVER'S VISIBILITY WILL BE REDUCED, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
MACK WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND REPLACE THE HARDWARE ON AFFECTED VEHICLES, FREE OF CHARGE.
