What's wrong?
The windshield wiper arm on a 2024-2025 Oshkosh Ngdv Electric or Ngdv delivery vehicle is the metal arm that holds the wiper blade against the glass. A locking flange nut fastens that arm to the wiper motor shaft, which is the rotating post that moves the arm across the windshield. The nut has to stay tight so motor movement turns into blade movement.
On affected vehicles, the wiper arm had been removed and reinstalled in a post-assembly care area, but the reassembly process did not require the nut to be tightened to the proper torque. If that nut is loose, the motor shaft can turn without moving the wiper arm the way it should. The wiper can slip, sweep poorly, or stop working, leaving the windshield without normal wiping.
There is no warning sign before failure. The first thing an owner or driver notices can be a wiper arm that does not move with the switch, moves out of position, or fails to clear the windshield.
Who's affected?
Covers both Ngdv and Ngdv Electric versions for 2024 and 2025, all tied to the same wiper system.

What's the safety risk?
Windshield wiper failure can reduce driver visibility and increase the risk of a crash. If the wipers stop working, pull over when safe and schedule the repair soon. Avoid driving in rain until the wiper arms are inspected and tightened. Repair is free at any franchised Oshkosh dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2024-2025 Oshkosh Ngdv Electric or Ngdv is included in this recall.
- Contact your nearest franchised Oshkosh dealer to schedule the free wiper-arm nut inspection and tightening that keeps the wipers working.
- Bring the owner letter Oshkosh mailed, or reference recall number 25V192 and Oshkosh recall NGDV_TSB_034 when you call.
- Avoid driving in rain or poor visibility until the wiper-arm nuts are inspected and tightened.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, an Oshkosh technician inspects the wiper arm nuts and tightens the wiper arms as needed so the wipers stay secured to the vehicle. The recall repair is free, and the inspection and tightening are covered. Out-of-pocket repairs already paid are handled through the new vehicle warranty, not through a separate reimbursement program, because all affected vehicles are covered by that warranty. Ask the service desk how warranty coverage applies if you have prior repair paperwork.
