Description of the problem | Water is/has pooled in the rear tail lamp mounted on the lift gate, causing the led's to not work correctly and short out on the passenger side. I am not alone by my research on dodge durango forums. This appears to be a universal problem with most owners whose led's are also shorted out. I am wondering why there has not been a recall, or, if there is, i would appreciate a replacement at no cost to me. The whole assembly needs to be replaced, as these are not repairable. I did not place water in this sealed unit, so how did so many of us get water in there? Would appreciate and explanation of why i should have to pay over $1,000. 00 for a factory defect? Any reply would greatly be helpful. |
