Description of the problem	Failure of windshield wiper linkage caused loss of vision during heavy rain storm. This is obvious not an isolated incident. The dealers are selling the replacements as fast as they get them in. My dodge truck is only 4 years old and the linkage failed where the linkage arm is connect to the windshield wiper arm mount. The problem stems from a ball and socket design that requires an nylon bushing to hold the two parts together. The nylon bushing is failing prematurely (only 4 years.) since the replacement is the exact duplicate, we can expect it to also wear out (another 4 years) and create and instant driving hazard. This needs to be redesigned by dodge and replaced on all vehicles immediately before a serious accident happens. To keep replacing it with the same flawed design is absurd.
