What this recall means for you
Certain 2018 Karma Revero vehicles may have a driver's side exterior rearview mirror made with convex glass instead of flat glass. This does not meet federal rearview mirror safety requirements. Convex mirrors make objects appear farther away than they really are, so the driver may not realize how close a vehicle or object is, which increases the risk of a crash.
Dealers will inspect the driver's side exterior rearview mirror and replace it if necessary. The repair is free. Owners can contact Karma customer service at 1-855-288-6109 for more information. Owners should also check their vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls.
