Recall Report: More than 8,000 Sprinter vans recalled due to lighting issue

The following safety recalls were issued Monday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

• Daimler Vans USA is recalling certain 2019 Mercedes-Benz and Freightliner Sprinter 1500, 2500, 3500, and 4500 vehicles. If the manual turn-switch that activates the vehicle lights is turned quickly from one lighting position to another, the brightness of the taillights can be significantly reduced or could switch off completely. Reduced taillight visibility increases the risk of a crash. NHTSA says potentially 8,243 vehicles are affected by this recall.
