Affected:

Defect:
The daytime running lights were built with a candela value greater than 2,600, are located less than 100mm from the turn signals and hazard warning lamps, and are not deactivated when the turn signal or hazard warning lamps are activated. this does not comply with fmvss no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
