Correction: Dealers will inspect and adjust hood bumpers to prevent the hood from contacting the headlamp assemblies, and will also install improved bulb fittings.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"94G8/7V","part_number":null,"units":10152,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Feux et instruments","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules, les ampoules des feux de croisement pourraient perdre leur contact électrique si le capot était fermé brusquement ou s'il était lâché à partir d'une certaine hauteur. Cela pourrait compromettre la visibilité du conducteur et augmenter les risques d'accident blessant quelqu'un ou endommageant des biens matériels.
