Defect
On van-type vehicles, the lock confirmation lamp on the cargo door locking system uses an incorrect lamp color. When the locking system is unlocked via the remote key, the red lamp illuminates and the vehicle can be driven in that state. This conflicts with the restrictions on auxiliary lamps under Article 42 of the Road Transport Vehicle Safety Standards.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the lock confirmation lamp with a corrected/revised part that illuminates green.
