Morgan Olson Corporation: Exterior Lighting
Morgan Olson Corporation reported this defect to federal regulators on Feb 4, 2015 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 11. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
Morgan Olson Corporation (Morgan Olson) is recalling certain model year 2014 Service Body trucks built on Sprinter cab chassis manufactured April 11, 2014, to December 18, 2014. The affected vehicles may have the rear identification lamps mounted below the doors. Also, the license plate illumination lamp may be mounted incorrectly which may result in incomplete illumination of the license plate. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
The risk
If the rear identification lamps and the license plate lamp are not mounted correctly, the vehicle may have reduced visibility, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
The remedy
Morgan Olson will notify owners, and dealers will modify the trucks to add rear identification lights above the door, and remount the license plate lamp, free of charge. The recall began on July 10, 2015. Owners may contact Morgan Olson customer service at 1-800-262-3437.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 15V065000.
