What This Recall Means

Component

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

What Happened
The heated wiper washer fluid system in your vehicle uses an electrical circuit to warm up the washer fluid. In some 2006-2008 models, a short circuit in this circuit can cause it to overheat and malfunction.
Risk if Unfixed
If the circuit overheats, it could start to malfunction, stink, or even produce smoke, which could increase the risk of a fire.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your dealer will install a new wire harness with a built-in fuse to prevent overheating, and do it at no cost to you. This repair should be done as soon as possible after you receive the recall notice.
