Component | EXTERIOR LIGHTING |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | Break lights need to be replaced more and more frequently over the course of 6-8 months. Recently they need replaced just weeks apart. Usually both go out at the same time, but not always. Both sockets are now burnt out. New bulbs don't work in either socket, and both sockets appear to be blackened/slightly melted and plastic around the socket easily cracks. Each time they went out, the issue was brought to my attention after being pulled over, in or around the city, and kindly informed by an officer. |
