Issue
Certain trucks fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. The front reflex reflectors were omitted during vehicle assembly. This could render the vehicle less visible to other motorist during hours of darkness, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash causing injuries or death. Correction: Dealers will install side reflex reflectors to the hood.
