Heated washer fluid

No, this is NEW news. It's the SECOND recall for washer fluid heaters. The earlier recall was a fix, but GM discovered vehicle fires on "fixed" vehicles. Now, they are REMOVING the washer fluid heater and giving a $100 refund for the deleted feature. Heated washer fluid was never an option for the HHR, so this does not affect any of our vehicles.

A RE-Recall... .

Permanently disable the heated washers and cut the customer a $100 check.

Without reading it, it might affect my brother truck. 08 GMC sierra Z71 fully loaded. It's a nice truck but man we get a letter in the mail all the time for something different on that truck. Shame really, 40k truck.
