The problem
Vehicle description: Mini vans built for fleet sales only. The headlamp module does not identify the park lamp as "drl" as requirement of FMVSS 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
The risk
These vehicles do not comply with requirements of FMVSS no. 108.
The fix
All fleet owners/operators will be mailed non-removable decals with the required "drl" letters.
