Maxzone Recalls DEPO Rear Turn Signal Lights for Size Non-Compliance

Maxzone is recalling specific DEPO rear turn signal lights that may be smaller than federal safety standards require, potentially reducing visibility to other drivers.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a vehicle safety component that fails to meet federal standards, creating a risk of crash due to reduced visibility, but no injuries or fatalities have been reported.

Plain-English summary

Maxzone Auto Parts Corporation is recalling certain DEPO rear turn signal lights with part numbers 312-1339L-UC and 312-1339R-UC. The recall involves 78 affected units. The defect is that the rear turn signal may be smaller than the minimum requirement, making it less noticeable to other drivers. Consequently, these turn signals fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Devices."

A turn signal that is less noticeable to other drivers increases the risk of a crash. No specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Maxzone will replace the rear turn signals free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed in July 2023. Owners may contact Maxzone customer service at 1-909-822-3288 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
