Volkswagen has informed the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that it will be issuing a voluntary recall.

The recall affects about 150,201 Volkswagen Passat vehicles from the 2012-2013 model years.

“It is possible that, in instances where the hood is closed roughly (or dropped from a certain height), the resulting vibration and/or impact can cause a low-beam headlight bulb to lose electrical contact. If this happens, a warning in the instrument cluster will immediately alert the driver. Failing illumination of the low beam bulb may lead to reduced visibility of the vehicle,” the company said in a statement.

There have been no crashes or injuries reported regarding this issue, Volkswagen said.

All owners of affected vehicles will be notified and will be instructed to arrange for an appointment with an authorized Volkswagen dealer. At no cost to customers, dealers will install an improved bulb fitting.
