Affected Vehicles
Condition
The holder for the headlight switch is broken, so the headlight switch assembly is loose or falls into the dashboard.
Technical Background
When stepping into the vehicle, the driver can hit the headlight switch with his leg or knee. As a result, the rivets holding the headlight switch holder in
the dashboard break.
Production Solution
The sonic welding of the two parts was optimized for production for the 2008 MY and beyond.
Service
The service solution is to repair the dashboard for the headlight switch holder. The holder and headlight switch assembly do not need to be replaced
unless they are damaged.
This bulletin only covers the cost of the repair to the dashboard and not the replacement cost for the damaged components.
1. Remove the cover over the left side of the dashboard.
2. Remove the left panel vent according to the repair manual.
3. Disconnect the headlight switch assembly and remove it.
