Daytime Running Lamps that do not dim may reduce the visibility of other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
9 safety recall campaigns, 1 defect investigation, 1,663 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
