Wiper Motor Linkage: All Technical Service Bulletins
Recall 00V387002: Windshield Wiper Linkage Failure
The windshield wiper linkage can disengage due to a broken ball socket.
This condition will likely result in sudden and complete loss of the windshield wiper function, or of the wiper function on the driver side only, increasing
the risk of a crash.
Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the wiper module. Owner notification is expected to begin during December 2000. Owners who take
their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Ford at
1-800-392-3673. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
