Issue:

The headlights in vehicles affected by this recall did not have the required cap installed over the horizontal aim adjuster during vehicle production. This makes the headlights non-compliant with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108, Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment. Incorrectly adjusted headlights may result in reduced visibility for the driver and other motorists, which could increase the risk of a crash.

 

Repair:
