2005–2006 Chevrolet Optra recall: lights
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain vehicles located in guam and saipan, the headlamp low beam or daytime running light (drl) function may be inoperative due to a melted splice pack (S201) on the ip harness.
💥 The risk
Inadequate lighting could reduce visibility of the vehicle increasing the rick of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will change the headlamp low beam splicing type and separate it from splice pack 201 to protect housing melting due to potential poor contact. The recall began on january 2, 2008. Owners may contact GM daewoo at 1-671-648-8453.
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.)
