The problem
The involved vehicles may contain front park/turn signal lamp assemblies that may be in non-compliance to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "Lamps, reflective devices and associated equipment". The non-compliance exists because of a possible separation between the lamp lens and lamp housing due to vibration. This separation could allow moisture and dirt accumulation to occur inside the lamp assembly.
The fix
Dealer will install a new front park/turn signal lamp on each headlight door without charge to owner.
