Details

What's wrong: The headlights may have been incorrectly aimed too high. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 108, "lamp, reflective devices and associated equipment."

Why it matters: Incorrectly aimed headlights can reduce the visibility of oncoming traffic, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Mbusa will notify owners, and dealers will check the headlight aim, and correct it, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began January 20, 2021.
