The defect
AM Equipment (AME) is recalling certain Windshield Wiper System Part No. 102-1095 manufactured February 5, 2013 to July 22, 2013. The pivot shaft may loosen allowing the wiper to disengage from the vehicle during operation.
The risk
If the wiper arm disengages during use, the wipers will fail to operate during periods of poor visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
The remedy
The units were sold to Entegra Coach and Jayco, Inc. AME supplied replacement wiper kits for Entegra and Jayco to install, free of charge. Entegra and Jayco will notify owners, and dealers will replace the wiper arm, at no charge. The recall began in August 2013. Owners may contact Entegra Coach at 1-800-945-4787 or Jayco at 1-800-283-8267.
