The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said that more than 422,600 trucks and SUVs were recalled because the windshield wiper arms may break, causing the wipers to fall off.

The following vehicles are being recalled:

  • F-250 SD (2022-2023 model years)

  • F-600 SD (2022-2023 model years)

Dealers will inspect and replace the wiper arms at no cost to vehicle owners.

Owners will receive letters in the mail alerting them of the issue after April 13, and a second letter once the repair is available, the NHTSA said.
