What is wrong
Certain conversion vans built on gmc/chevrolet chassis fail to comply with requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices and associated equipment." the housing lens of the center high mounted stop lamp does not allow enough light to emit from the lamp.
The risk
Following vehicles may not be fully informed of vehicle braking. Rear-end collisions and injury to occupants may occur.
The fix
Santa fe is working with audiovox to replace the center high-mounted brake lamp assembly. Owners may contact santa fe at 1-[removed] or asa at 1-[removed].
