The corner and bumper lamp assemblies on your vehicle are the lights that come on when you turn your headlights on. In some cases, these lamps might not have the required amber side reflectors, which are essential for visibility.
Risk if Unfixed
If your headlight reflectors are missing, it could be harder for other drivers to see your vehicle at night, especially if you're turning or changing lanes. This could lead to a vehicle crash.
Free Fix
You should contact DOPE, INC. at 1-626-272-1798 to arrange for a full refund for the non-compliant lamps. This recall began on July 28, 2009.
