Answer:

squinting modifier

Step-by-step explanation:

A squinting modifier is any ambiguous modifier, such as only, almost, around, highly. They qualify the text both before and after it. The way to correct error of squinting modifier is by changing the position of modifier in the sentence.

Here almost is squinting modifier which can qualify both arrived and too late.

To correct error almost can be be used after arrived

correct sentence will be

The rescue team arrived almost too late
