Exterior lighting: headlights

What is wrong
The driver side headlamp lens has an incorrect aim pad number on the lens. This does not comply with fmvss no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
Risk
Consequence of non-compliance: if these head lamps are re-aimed using a mechanical aiming device that utilizes the aiming pad numers, the resultant aim would be out of the specified range. This may cause a visibility problem increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the driver side headlamp on vehicles with the correct outboard lower pad number.
