Details

What's wrong: Certain passenger vehicles do not conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment." Some of these vehicles do not meet the overhead sign illumination requirements.

Why it matters: Less illumination may reduce the ability of the driver to read overhead signs when driving at night.

The fix: Dealers will install new low beam headlamp bulbs in both of the headlamp assemblies. The recall began on September 8, 2004. Owners should contact Buick at 1-866-608-8080.
