NHTSA recall 08E021000
Exterior Lighting · Kia America, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: These headlamp assemblies may not have been aligned properly and fail to conform to the photometric requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 108, lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment.
Why it matters: Improper aiming of the headlamp may result in poor visibility possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
The fix: Hyundai-Kia dealers have been notified and instructed to return their supply to Hyundai motor america. None of the headlamps were sold as retail. As a result, an owner notification letter will not be issued.
