Details

What's wrong: When the headlight switch is turned from "autolamps" to "headlamps on," the daytime running lamps (drls) may remain fully bright instead of dimming to parking lamps as intended. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (fmvss) number 108, "lamps, reflective devices and associated equipment."

Why it matters: Daytime running lamps that do not dim may reduce the visibility of other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: ,dealers will reprogram the body control module software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 17, 2026.
