Your vehicle uses a combination lamp to provide light and reflectors to help other drivers see you. Some replacement lamps sold for your vehicle lack a critical amber side reflector.
Risk if Unfixed
Without this reflector, your vehicle may be harder for other drivers to see, especially at night or in low-visibility conditions. This could increase the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will replace the lamp with a new one that has the required amber side reflector. This repair is free, and you should schedule it as after confirming availability with your dealer as possible. This timing describes the original 2006 filing; contact your dealer now to confirm the free repair is available.
