1 Headlights problem

Failure Date: 07/13/2018

Mar 29,2012 manufacturer recall numbersr-12-002 NHTSA recall number12e012 recall statusrecall incomplete summary the headlamps used for production vehicles allow for horizontal adjustment during the vehicle assembly process, but the adjustment is sealed after the headlamps are installed so that no further adjustments can be made. These headlamps were mistakenly shipped to dealers as a service part without first disabling the adjustment feature. Safety risk without the horizontal adjustment mechanism disabled, the headlight can be adjusted to either reduce the driver’s visibility or blind oncoming traffic. Both conditions increase the risk of a crash and can occur without prior warning. Remedy the dealership will inspect your vehicle to determine if the horizontal adjustment mechanism on your headlamps has been disabled. If necessary, the dealer will repair your headlamps by sealing and disabling the horizontal adjustment mechanism, free of charge so basicly I would like to know where I can get this fixed and get a free pair of headlight for driving my car for so long without being notified. The only reason I found out was because I was trying to put in a new radio in my car and the recall notice came up.
