What's the hazard
Genera Corporation (Genera) is recalling certain model TYC and Genera aftermarket replacement driver-side (part number 20-9328-00) and passenger-side (part number 20-9327-00) headlamp assemblies manufactured May 7, 2013, to August 31, 2014 for use on 2013-2014 Acura ILX vehicles. Excessive heat temperatures around the headlight bulb and reflector unit may diminish the output of the headlight and cause smoke, melting, and fire. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
What to do
Genera will notify distributors and distributors will attempt to identify owners that purchased the affected headlamp assemblies. Owners will be reimbursed upon return of the defective assembly. Genera notified its distributors on August 22, 2014. Owners may contact Genera customer service at 1-888-963-9888.
