Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about EXTERIOR LIGHTING:LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE:SOFTWARE filed February 17, 2022
NHTSA complaint #1795712 (ODI reference 11452603) concerns a 2022 TOYOTA CAMRY and was filed on February 17, 2022. The owner reports the failure occurred on February 7, 2022. The vehicle had 1,245 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Florida based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as exterior lighting:lighting control module:software, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same TOYOTA CAMRY cohort independently describe similar exterior lighting:lighting control module:software failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data.
