SUBJECT:
OUTLANDER STOP LAMP SWITCH REPLACEMENT SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN
PURPOSE
On some affected vehicles, the stop lamp switch connector may have been contaminated with grease during vehicle assembly. The grease may have
seeped into the switch affecting the electrical contacts. The resulting poor electrical connection may prevent the stop lamps from illuminating when the
brake pedal is depressed.
This Safety Recall Bulletin contains instructions for replacing the stop lamp switch. A new stop lamp switch must be installed.

verify whether the vehicle is involved in this recall campaign. Please contact owners of recently sold VINs to bring their vehicle to the dealership for this
procedure.
CUSTOMER NOTIFICATION
