The issue
ON VEHICLES WITH FOGLAMPS, THE HEADLAMP CIRCUIT BREAKER MAY OVERHEAT AT LOW BEAM RESULTING IN AN INTERMITTENT HEADLAMP CIRCUIT. AN INTERMITTENT CIRCUIT COULD CAUSE THE HEADLAMPS AND FOGLAMPS TO SUDDENLY GO OUT. UNDER NIGHTTIME OR SEVERE WEATHER CONDITIONS, THIS COULD REDUCE VISIBILITY AND RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. CORRECTION: WIRING WILL BE REVISED FOR THE FORWARD LAMP CIRCUIT ON SUSPECT VEHICLES.
Description (français)
Sur les véhicules dotés de phares antibrouillard, le disjoncteur des phares peut surchauffer alors que les phares sont en code et couper l'alimentation de tous les phares par intermittence. La nuit ou par mauvais temps, la défectuosité peut réduire la visibilité suffisamment pour provoquer un accident.
