Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
UD Trucks Corporation is recalling certain 2011 model year UD1800, UD2000, UD2300, UD2600, and UD3300 medium duty trucks manufactured between July 22, 2010 and November 29, 2010. The headlamps on these vehicles have a low beam horizontal adjustment mechanism that was not adequately secured during manufacturing, which means the headlamp settings could be improperly adjusted after the vehicle left the factory. This could result in headlamps that do not fully illuminate the road surface or prevent other motorists from seeing the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
To fix this problem, dealers will install a prevention cap over the low beam horizontal headlamp adjustment mechanism at no charge to prevent any future adjustments. The recall began on April 18, 2011. Owners of affected vehicles should contact UD Trucks at 972-756-5500 to schedule the service.
