This is an independent copy of the official notice, kept so you can see what changed. CarsMultiverse is not a safety authority: to act on this recall, use the authority’s own version at NHTSA, or the official register for your country (linked at the foot of this page).
What the authority says can happen if this is not fixed: “The driver may be unaware that the turn signal is not working, increasing the risk of a crash.”

What it said before
Nothing has changed while we have been watching. We last read the wording of this campaign on 5 September 2026, and it matched the copy we already held.
That copy hashes to b2ae2331127befa00bf4d497e3924a7d…, so if it is ever edited the change is provable rather than a matter of memory.
This is one of 663 notices in the record whose component field names exterior lighting. Across that group the median wait before owners were written to was 43 days.
Last checked . No change has been recorded in the wording.
The same recall in other countries
This campaign carries a manufacturer code that also appears in another country’s register, which means the same defect was recalled there too.
- Canada: Transport Canada recall 2026165, recorded 2 April 2026 (within a week of the American filing)
Matched on N252541250, the manufacturer’s own number for this campaign, which is the only field the registers share. Exact match, nothing paired on brand and date. The two dates are adjacent instruments rather than the same one, so a difference of a day or two means nothing.
