Defect
On vehicles equipped with a compact tail lift, the exhaust pipe outlet position is set incorrectly. Sustained uphill driving and similar conditions can cause the left-side rear combination lamp to reach excessive temperatures. Continued use in this condition may cause the plastic components of the lamp to melt. In the worst case, the lamp may fail to illuminate.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the exhaust pipe with the corrected part and replace the left-side rear combination lamp with a new unit.
