Details

What's wrong: There can be interference with the headlamp housing if headlamp bulbs are replaced with any brand other than koito brand bulbs.

Why it matters: The interference with the headlamp housing caused byother than koito brand lamp bulbs does not comply with fmvss 108, "lamps,reflective devices, and associated equipment."

The fix: Toyota dealers will provide a new koito brand bulb with no charge if a non-koito brand bulb is now installed, or should a headlamp bulb burn out in the future. "caution labels" will also be placed on each headlamp housing.
