Default HELP! ALIEN ATTACK!!!!
Has anyone encountered problems with the headlight washers? On Sunday, I parked, turned off the headlights and engine. As I removed the key -- the aliens erupted from my bumper and began madly pumping water all over my hood. I had to grab a garden hose to keep the reservoir filled and prevent the pump from burning up. After about five minutes, it stopped and the aliens retracted back into the bumper. Natually, the dealer could not recreate the problem.

Suddenly, the movie "Maximum Overdrive" comes to mind.

Maybe they 'drank' something that disagreed with them. I have the same reaction sometimes.

Default wow, I would have been staring at the car dumfounded...
