2003 Dodge Viper recall: lights
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain passenger vehicles, the multifunction switch park lamp contacts may corrode.
💥 The risk
This corrosion could cause the park lamps, head lamps and/or instrument panel lamps to flicker or become inoperative. This could affect driver visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will reflash the software in the body control module. Owner notification began on december 1, 2003. Owners should contact daimlerchrysler at 1-800-992-1997.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
