Headlamp Washer Pump: Recalls
Recall 96V175000: Headlamp Washer Pump Replacement
If one of the headlamp wiper arms becomes misaligned, the wiper blade can lodge in the groove under the headlamp. If the washers are activated with
the wiper blade in the misaligned and lodged position, the washer pump will run continuously expelling all available fluid.
Pump operation in the absence of fluid can cause the pump to overheat and cause a vehicle fire.
Dealers will replace the headlamp washer pump on these vehicles.
Owner notification began November 18, 1996.
