2018 Dodge DURANGO Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Description of the problem	I was pulled over at night by a police officer for not having any rear lights. The officer informed me that he is always pulling dodge durango's over because this is a common problem that the lights fill up with water and the electrical components corrode and no longer function. This is a 2018 that did not pass a pa safety inspection in 2020 without paying $1,888. 51 to replace the damaged parts. The gasket and sealant on this product breaks down in a short period of time allowing rain water to fill up inside the tail light racetrack assembly that is one part containing the license plate lights, backup camera and rear backup lights. I called fca customer care and they refused to provide any assistance and were well aware of the problem. This problem has been ongoing since the 2014 models and dodge is not willing to elevate or solve the problem and the consumer is unknowingly driving without lights until being pulled over by the police or the vehicle does not pass a safety inspection. This isn't a $100 expense that is being ignored but a $1,900 expense. This vehicle could have only 1,000 miles or 500,000 miles but shouldn't be breaking down in less than 3 years. This is not neglect or wrongdoing on the part of the consumer and is clearly a quality control breakdown that is being ignored. How can we request the government to investigate and issue a safety recall on this defect to guarantee that the vendors and manufacturers of the defective product are the ones paying for the repairs and not the customers who are the victims during this pandemic when i am out of work and don't have $2,000 just sitting around and i'm struggling to pay the bills and put food on the table for my family?

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
