Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The passenger side DRL/turn signal is dim causing the vehicle visability to be reduced and other drivers unable to see turn indications, increasing the risk of crash. The design of the unit places undue heat near the circuit board causing the unit to fail. The driver's side does not have this issue. This is a known issue with many post on forums on it.”

“The contact owns a 2019 Cadillac XT4. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the contact exited the vehicle and became aware that the daytime running light was out on the driver’s and passenger’s side.

The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 75,000.”
