What NHTSA recorded

The involved vehicles fail to comply to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices and associated equipment". The stepwell lights located at the curbside front entrance door and the rear exit door may generate excessive heat. This heat may be transmitted to the protruding shield located in the passenger entrance and exit area.

Remedy

Dealer will install an additional plastic covershield over the existing shield to eliminate the problem.
