Consumer Description

TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY IS POORLY DESIGNED. TAIL LIGHT FAILS SO THAT BRAKE LIGHTS, INCLUDING THE CENTER MOUNTED BRAKE LIGHT, ARE "ON" SHOWING THE CAR BRAKES APPLIED ANYTIME THE CAR LIGHTS ARE ON. CRUISE CONTROL FAILS TO ENGAGE, OR IF ENGAGED AT THE TIME OF FAILURE FORCES CAR TO ACCELERATE. IF I RESET THE PLUG IN BRAKE BULB THE FAILURE GOES AWAY FOR APPROXIMATELY 1 WEEK WHEN THE FAILURE REASSERTS ITSELF.*AK
