- Component
- EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
- Problem
- BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2023 Rolls-Royce Phantom vehicles. The headlights may not have received a metal coating application, which can result in the low beams not adequately illuminating road signs. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Devices."
- Risk
- Improperly illuminated road signs may be difficult for the driver to read, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the headlights, free of charge. The affected vehicles are still at dealerships and therefore no owner notification letters will be mailed. Owners may contact Rolls-Royce customer service at 1-877-877-3735.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
What this recall means for you
The headlights on certain vehicles may not have received a metal coating during production. Without this coating, the low beams may not adequately illuminate road signs, which can make signs difficult for the driver to read. The vehicles also do not meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 for lamps and reflective devices.
Difficulty reading road signs can increase the risk of a crash, particularly when driving at night or in poor visibility.
Dealers will replace the headlights free of charge. The affected vehicles are still at dealerships, so owners will not receive a notification letter by mail. If you have questions, contact Rolls-Royce customer service at 1-877-877-3735, and check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for open recalls.
