Recall 2016549

The issue

On certain vehicles, an improper crimp of a diode in the windshield washer pump may cause the windshield wiper circuit located in the body control module (BCM) to fail. If this occurs, the windshield wipers would become inoperative, which could limit the driver’s visibility under certain conditions which may increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace the defective windshield wiper pump.

Description (français)

Dans certains véhicules, une diode mal sertie dans la pompe de lave-glace pourrait causer une défaillance du circuit d'essuie-glaces situé dans le module confort-commodité (BCM). Si ce problème survient, les essuie-glaces cesseront de fonctionner, ce qui pourrait limiter la visibilité du conducteur dans certaines conditions et, par conséquent, pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter la pompe de lave-glace, ainsi que la remplacer.
