## What is wrong

On certain Dodge Charger police vehicles, an overheated bulb harness connector could result in a loss of low beam headlamp operation.  The sudden loss of low beam headlamp illumination, should it occur during a rainy/snowy day, or during hours of darkness, could compromise the driver's ability to see the road and its users, which could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will replace both headlamp harnesses. Note: This recall is superseded by recall 2012049.
