1995 Oldsmobile 98 recalls, newest first

October 4, 1994NHTSA 94V1900001,997 vehicles potentially affected

Exterior lighting › Headlights

Summary: These vehicles were assembled with lighting control modules which can experience excessive current leakage due to damaged surface mounting capacitors. This can cause loss of head lamps and parking lamps.
Consequence: Sudden loss of headlamps can cause reduced driver visibility which can result in a vehicle accident. Also, the head lamps cannot be turned off, or they may turn on while the vehicle is parked, resulting in loss of battery charge and inability to restart the car.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the headlamp module.
