Defect description

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."

Safety risk

The excessive brightness may affect the vision of other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
