On certain vehicles, the headlight lead wire running from the combination switch to the headlight switch that is built into the turn lever may be bent during production. In these vehicles, the wire can be subject to bending fatigue, and over time may break. Should this occur, there might be a gradual loss of headlights, potentially resulting in a total loss of headlights. Correction: Headlight switch will be replaced on affected vehicles.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2000117.
