2007–2008 GMC Acadia & 2007–2008 Saturn Outlook + 1 more recall: windows, wipers & mirrors

⚠️ What's wrong

GM is recalling 88,809 my 2008 buick Enclave, and my 2007-2008 GMC Acadia and saturn Outlook vehicles currently or previously registered in the following states: alaska, colorado, connecticut, delaware, idaho, illinois, indiana, iowa, maine, maryland, massachusetts, michigan, minnesota, montana, nebraska, new hampshire, new jersey, new york, north dakota, ohio, pennsylvania, rhode island, south dakota, utah, vermont, west virginia, wisconsin, wyoming, and the district of columbia. If a buildup of snow or ice on the windshield or on the wipers restricts the movement of the wiper arm, the windshield wiper linkage may become detached from the motor shaft and the wipers may become inoperative.

If this were to occur, driver visibility could be reduced, which could result in a vehicle crash.
