Windshield Wiper Motor Recall

Postby kingtut » Wed Jul 13, 2011 9:14

Anyone else get one of these? Something about the ground/relay/whatever being bent. Basically they put in another ground...

I got the same car, if you verify it please post. I guess I can have the dealer run the VIN but nothing in the mail yet...

Got it fixed. Took about 45min. I haven't even looked under the hood to see what they did. Per the tech, apparently they just add a second ground. Looks like its a $47 fix that they charge to Mazda.
