EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
Without the low beams also illuminated when the high beams are on, the driver may have reduced visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
8 safety recall campaigns, 6 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
Without the low beams also illuminated when the high beams are on, the driver may have reduced visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the power steering hose contacts the power stud causing a power steering fluid leak, additional steering effort may be needed increasing the risk of a crash or an electrical arc may occur, increasing the risk of a fire.
The build up of heat in the wiring from the loose power connection can increase the risk of a fire.
In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
If the vehicle is being driven and the button on the remote is pushed, the night shades may lower, blocking the driver's view, possibly increasing the risk of a crash.
Electrical arcing in the presence of leaking power steering fluid can increase the risk of a fire.
Two 2016 NEWMAR VENTANAs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
