W605 - Replacing Windshield Wiper Blades (Workshop Campaign)
Vehicle Type:
Cayenne/Cayenne S/Cayenne Turbo
Model Year:
2006 (6)
Concern:
Replacing windshield wiperblades.
Information:
This is to inform you of a voluntary Workshop Campaign on a certain 2006 model year Cayenne (V6), Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo vehicles. Vehicles which had the wiper blades replaced more than 4 weeks ago as part of the sales check, environmental influences can:
- reduce the wiping quality of the wiper blades, causing the wiper blades to smear.
- cause the wiper blades to produce rubbing noises.
On all model year 2006 vehicles supplied to customers in the months of November 2005 and December 2005, before handing the vehicle over to the customer, check whether the sales check was performed more than 4 weeks ago and if yes, replace both front windshield wiper blades.
Affected vehicles:
A total of 665 U.S. and Canadian vehicles fall within the scope of this Workshop Campaign.
