NHTSA recall 20V097000
Exterior Lighting · Ford Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with high series LED headlamps with autolamp (on/off) functionality. The daytime running lamps (drl) may remain activated instead of dimming to parking lamps when the master lighting switch (mls) is manually rotated from the "autolamps" switch position to "headlamps on." As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 108,…
Why it matters: Drl that cannot dim may reduce the visibility of other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Ford will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the body control module, free of charge. The recall began March 10, 2020.
