Rear wiper motor thread broke off... Possible to fix or replace the unit?
As I was tightening the 10mm bolt that holds the rear wiper blade onto the motor the thread broke off.
Can this piece be replace or am I SOL and would have to buy a new wiper motor?
Also, is the rear wiper blade supposed to sit flush with the base? I thought it was supposed to sit flush and tightened the 10mm bolt to the point where the thread broke off.
Not a hard swap, all the stuff lives up in the trunk and likely easy to find replacement because of many folks going with the plug you heard about that one time. I pulled the spare from dead car in case of the picture you posted happening to me. I thiiiiiiink it might be same assembly as Outlander but check to be sure. For wrecker. To get it yourself. For cheap. I'm cheap. Sorta.

Agreed. I've already taken out the motor. Was just hoping I wouldn't have to buy a new one since my current motor is working fine and I'd hate to toss it.
