Recall 94V-229: 1995 Buick Regal
GENERAL MOTORS CORP. recall for exterior lighting, reported to NHTSA on Nov 21, 1994, covering about 1,022 vehicles.
The problem
The vehicles were assembled with an incorrect front park/turn signal bulb which does not have sufficient candle power. This does not comply with FMVSS no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
The risk
Consequence of non-compliance: operators could fail to notice and heed the warning labels. Reduces candle power on the park/turn lights decreases the liklihood of vehicle operator's intent being seen by other motorists.
The fix
Dealers will replace the incorrect bulb with the correct bulb.
