- What is wrong
- Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2021 ID.4 vehicles. Caps were installed on the headlight vertical aim instead of the horizontal aim, allowing for horizontal adjustment of the headlight beam.

- Risk
- Adjusting the horizontal headlight beam can increase glare, reducing visibility for the driver and increasing the risk of a crash.
