Recall 2001070

The issue

Certain vehicles do not comply with the marking requirements of CMVSS 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. The High/Low beam headlamp on these vehicles does not bear a "DOT" marking which is required by the standard. Correction: All High/Low beam headlamp bulbs installed since February 8, 2000 have the correct marking. Since the subject bulbs meets or exceed the performance and design requirements of the standard, and the missing marking will not cause a person to replace, fit or use the bulb in a manner for which they are not intended, no further action will be taken.

Description (français)

Certains véhicules ne satisfont pas aux exigences de la NSVAC 108 - Système d'éclairage et dispositifs rétroréfléchissants. Les phares incorporant les feux de route et de croisement de ces véhicules ne portent pas la marque DOT comme l'exige la norme. Correction : Toutes les ampoules de feux de route et de croisement installées depuis le 8 février 2000 portent les marques prescrites. Puisque les ampoules non conformes respectent ou surpassent quand même les exigences de la norme en matière de rendement et de conception et que l'absence de la marque ne fera pas en sorte qu'une personne remplace, installe ou utilise l'ampoule autrement que de la manière prévue, aucune autre mesure ne s'impose.
