On April 14, 2022, a recall was issued for the wiper blade arms for my Ford Expedition. Unfortunately, I did not receive a notice until June of that year, due to a separate recall concerning potential under the hood fire risks. In September 2022, my vehicle was brought in for both recall repairs, but there was a supply shortage of wiper blades, rendering any immediate resolution impossible. Despite subsequent visits for regular check-ups, the wiper blade shortage persisted. On two different occasions (Jan & March 2023) my wiper blades did not work properly. After the wiper blades moved back and forth to clear my window, they got stuck at an angle and completely obstructed my view. I went to my local dealership to temporarily correct the issue. Fast forward to July 2023, and the eagerly awaited wiper blades have finally arrived. However, installing them has revealed a new problem: the blades do not fully retract. Although the wiper motor itself functions correctly, this issue stems from a combination of programming and quality concerns. It appears that a small part within the wiper blade, which prompted the recall, has led the motor to adapt to functioning without that part. Consequently, when the new recall blades are fitted, they do not retract properly, obstructing my view. Upon identifying the problem, the manager at my Ford Dealership promptly reported the issue to Ford, requesting coverage for the cost of a new motor to align with the recall blades. Despite their efforts, Ford has refused to take responsibility for an issue that is clearly not my fault. It is important to note that at the time of the recall, my motor was still under warranty. Additionally, during subsequent visits for oil changes, I was still within the warranty period. Unfortunately, due to the delay in receiving the recall blades, my motor's warranty has now expired based on the mileage of my vehicle. To receive a new motor, I have to pay for it since Ford refuses.

on 5/20/2022 I contacted my local dealership regarding recall 22V250 to discuss getting this issue repaired. I was scheduled an appointment on 6/16/2022 at 7:40 a.m. On 6/15/2022 I was told by the dealership that they were not going to repair my vehicle because I was not having any issues with it and I had to wait until there was a problem. When I made the appointment on 5/20/22 I was told that they would be able to repair it even if it was not broken and they would get the part ordered. I was told yesterday by the service manager that they had three parts in but they belonged to someone else and that since mine was not broken they could not fix it.
