Recall 21V643000
Exterior Lighting — Swab Wagon · reported 17 Aug 2021 · 4 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
Swab Wagon Company, Inc. (Swab Wagon) is recalling certain 2017 Chevrolet 2500 HD, 2018-2019 Chevrolet 3500 HD, and 2019 Ford F-350 Swab Pioneer medic vehicles equipped with Code 3 7x9 Stop-Tail-Turn Reverse All-in-One LED lights. The lights may be too bright, exceeding the maximum light output allowed which may adversely affect the vision of drivers. As such, these lamps fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
The excessive brightness may affect the vision of other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Swab Wagon will provide instructions on how to obtain a filter kit from the light manufacturer, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on August 26, 2021. Owners may contact Swab Wagon's customer service at 1-800-834-7922.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
