Consumer Description

I HAVE REPLACED THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE LIGHT/TURN SIGNAL 6 TIMES. I HAVE HAD THE CIRCUIT BOARD REPLACED. THE HOUSING, THE SOCKET, AND NOW THEY WANT TO REPLACE THE CONNECTOR. TODAY MY REAR PASSENGER BRAKE LIGHT/TURN SIGNAL WENT OUT AND UPON INSPECTION THE BULB HAD MELTED IN THE SOCKET. THIS IS POSING A HAZARD TO ME. NO BRAKE LIGHTS, OR TURN SIGNALS IN THE REAR. *JB
