Description of the problem | While vehicle was parked, i noticed the "racetrack" style led tail lights, specifically the large section across the trunk, on my dodge durango were no longer working. I did an online search and multiple incidents regarding this same issue popped up. It appears a faulty seal around the tail light allows for water to enter the inside of the light causing it to burn out. The only fix for this is to replace the entire led unit at a cost of over $1000 which the vehicle owner must pay for. The replacement of the led light does not fix the leaking issue allowing for the light to burn out again. |
