The short answer
NHTSA received Autocar, LLC’s report on Apr 11, 2024. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 19, 2026.
Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
Warning lights that do not illuminate when the ignition switch is in the OFF position can reduce the vehicle’s visibility to other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
Autocar, LLC (Autocar) is recalling certain 2020-2024 DC (Legend) vehicles.
The hazard warning lights may not function independent of the ignition switch.
As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, “Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment.”
