Reported risk: NOTE: THIS RECALL SUPERSEDES RECALL 95-202 FOR 1994 TEMPO/TOPAZ 2.3 LITRE VEHICLES. THE ENGINE COOLING FAN MAY BECOME FROZEN IN PLACE BY SNOW, ICE OR SLUSH. IF THIS OCCURS AND THE COOLING FAN IS ACTIVATED, EITHER AUTOMATICALLY TO REDUCE COOLANT TEMPERATURE OR WHEN THE DEFROSTER IS TURNED ON, THE COOLING FAN WILL NOT ROTATE AND THE FAN MOTOR AND WIRING CAN OVERHEAT. THIS COULD RESULT IN A FIRE. CORRECTION: ENGINE COOLING FAN MOTOR CIRCUIT PROTECTION WILL BE REVISED BY INSTALLING A FUSED JUMPER HARNESS WITHIN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT.
