EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
- The defect
- Shyft Group (Shyft) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Blue Arc BA4L-800 vehicles. The headlight horizontal adjustment stud is missing a cover, allowing for horizontal adjustment of the headlight beam. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
- What it can cause
- Adjusting the horizontal headlight beam can create a glare, or reduce visibility for the driver, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will install a cover over the horizontal adjustment studs, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 14, 2025. Owners may contact Blu Arc customer service at 800-237-7806, or email [email protected].
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

It covers model years 2024 to 2025, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Shyft Group with NHTSA on March 5, 2025 as campaign 25V142000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
