## What is wrong

On certain vehicles equipped with halogen headlamps, headlamp reflectors and lenses could overheat if the headlamps are operated while the vehicle is not in motion. This could damage the lamp reflector, affecting photometric output. If left on for extended periods, the headlamps could melt, resulting in smoke and increasing the risk of fire causing injury and/or damage to property.  Correction: Dealers will replace the headlamps.
