Summit Bodyworks is recalling one 2017 Freightliner M2-106 vehicle. The all-in-one rear LED lights may be too bright, exceeding the maximum light output allowed which may adversely affect the vision of drivers. As such, this vehicle fails to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The excessive brightness may affect the vision of other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
Summit Bodyworks will notify the owner, and provide instructions on how to obtain a filter kit from the light manufacturer, free of charge. The owner notification letter were mailed on September 15, 2021. Owners may contact Summit Bodyworks' customer service at 1-303-348-2681.
