Defect
The red lens shared by the tail lamp and brake lamp in the rear combination lamp has insufficient weather resistance. Prolonged exposure to intense sunlight causes the red color to gradually fade, and the lamp output color may no longer conform to Safety Standards.
Corrective action
All owners are notified of the lens fading issue. If the red color of the combined tail and brake lamp lens has faded and appears white compared to the rear reflector red lens, the rear combination lamp is replaced with a corrected part.
