Passenger van / Light commercial vehicle

What is the danger

A defect in the control-unit software of the body control module may cause the rear lights to fail or to be lit too weakly if the light selector switch is operated quickly. This may prevent subsequent traffic from detecting the vehicle, increasing the risk of an accident.
