Accent L Hatch Back L4-1495cc 1.5L SOHC MFI (2000)
Wiper Pivot: Recalls
Recall 00V096000: Windshield Wipers Inoperative
Vehicle Description: Passenger vehicles. The protective rubber boot which covers the ball joint connection between the windshield wiper motor drive
arm and the windshield wiper drag link can stick to the surface of the drive arm.
If the rubber boot sticks and the wiper motor is turned on, binding of the interface between the drive arm and drag link results, causing the ball joint
connection to disengage.
If the connection disengages, the windshield wipers are inoperative.
Inoperative windshield wipers can contribute to reduced visibility during inclement weather.
Dealers will replace the protective rubber boot and will lubricate the new protective rubber boot where it contacts the drive arm.

free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Hyundai at 1-800-633-5151.
