ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE

Manufacturer

What Happened
The water pump in your vehicle is a part that helps keep your engine cool. Some water pumps, sold at NAPA Auto Parts, might have a black pulley or no 'US9377' stamp on the housing.
Risk if Unfixed
If the water pump fails, the timing belt could break, causing your engine to shut down while driving. This could increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will replace the faulty water pump with a new one at no cost to you. Schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
