“Exterior lights will not come on. I work nights so it's imperative my lights are in good working condition. Driving 65 down a highway in the middle of the night and your lights shut off is a scary situation. I noticed a recall for this is under development. I'm not sure what that means and would appreciate clarification.”

NHTSA complaint #10759016, filed 2015-08, 143,000 miles

“Both of my low beam head lights went out at the same time. I looked this up and found out that there was a recall on this on august 14, 2015 and I was not notified about this recall. I was pulling my vehicle into my garage when I noticed the lights were out. I checked both bulbs and fuses and they were all okay. The high beams, fog lights and turn signals work, just not the low beams on either side.”
