Defect
On medium-duty van trucks, the side reflex reflectors are mounted in incorrect positions that expose them directly to exhaust gas. Heat from the exhaust gas deforms the reflectors, causing the vehicles to fail to conform to Safety Standards Article 35-2 (Side Reflex Reflector Requirements).
Corrective action
On all vehicles, relocate the side reflex reflectors to positions not exposed to exhaust gas. Any reflectors that have already deformed must be replaced with new parts.
