Issue

Certain vehicles may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. Forward lighting could be temporarily lost when switching from low beams to high beams due to a delay in activation of the high beams. Although low beam functionality returns if the operator switches back to low beams, the temporary is contrary to the requirements of the standard, and would reduce driver visibility, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will modify the wiring harness.
