Details

What's wrong: Certain spyder headlamp replacement assemblies sold for use on 2004 through 2007 Ford f150 pickup trucks. During production, the headlamps were internally misaligned and they fail the photometry requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 108, lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment.

Why it matters: The purpose of this standard is to reduce traffic crashes and deaths and injuries by providing adequate illumination of the roadway.

The fix: Spyder will notify owners and offer a full reimbursement for any noncompliant headlamps. The recall is expected to begin during November 2007. Owners can contact spyder at 866-558-4264.
