What NHTSA recorded

The front and/or rear hazard warning lamps (four-way flashers) do not flash when the hazard switch is activated. This fails to comply with fmvss no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."

Possible consequence

If these lamps were not flashing, other vehicles would not be aware that this vehicle was stopped increasing the risk of an accident.

Remedy

Dealers or vehicle owners will inspect for proper function of the hazard warning lamps. If necessary, dealers will replace the hazard lamp switch.
