Recall 06V-395: Exterior Lighting
Problem: Certain vehicles fail to comply with the stop lamp and reflex reflector requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, 'lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
Risk: This standard is to reduce crashes, injuries and deaths by providing adequate illumination of the roadway, and by enhancing the conspicuity of motor vehicles on the public roads so that their presence is perceived and their signals understood, both in daylight and in darkness or other conditions of reduced visibility.

Problem: Certain passenger vehicles equipped with power rear seats fail to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 225, "child restraint anchorage systems." the lower anchorage brackets in the rear seats do not meet the location requirement in this standard.
