## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the headlamp assemblies may not have been secured correctly during vehicle assembly.  As a result, the headlamps could loosen and detach from the vehicle, which could compromise the driver's ability to see the road and its users.  In addition, the errant headlamp module could strike a vehicle, a stationary object, or a bystander.  These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury.  Correction: Dealers will replace the headlamp locking components.
