Hyundai windshield wiper motor cover seal on the affected vehicles may degrade allowing corrosion on the wiper motor's circuit board.
The short version
Hyundai Motor America reported a problem with the windshield wiper/washer motor. Here is what owners need to know.
The windshield wiper motor cover seal on the affected vehicles may degrade allowing corrosion on the wiper motor's circuit board. The corrosion can cause intermittent or total loss of wiper function.
Inoperative wipers during inclement weather can decrease driver visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the wiper motor cover and seal, free of charge.
