The hazard

What to do

Hale will notify the vehicle manufacturers that purchased the pumps, and dealers for those manufacturers will reverse the wires leading to the warning/indicators or provide a plug-in wire harness, free of charge. The recall began September 9, 2018. Owners may contact Hale customer service at 1-800-533-3569. Hale's number for this recall is SB-166.
