Details

What's wrong: Due to a software programming error, any failure with the turn signals would not be communicated to the driver. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."

Why it matters: If a turn signal fails, the driver will not be informed and surrounding drivers will not receive indication of the intention to change vehicle direction, which can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will update the body control module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 28, 2022.
