  Reported issue: If one of the headlamp wiper arms becomes misaligned, the wiper balde 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.

  Possible consequence: Pump operation in the absence of fluid can cause the pump to overheat and cause a vehicle fire.

  Remedy: Dealers will replace the headlamp washer pump on these vehicles.
