Consumer Description

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 GMC YUKON. THE CONTACT RECENTLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THAT THE DESIGN DOES NOT PERMIT OPERABLE TOWING DUE TO THE NONFUNCTIONAL TAIL LIGHTS.

THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 7,500 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. UPDATED 02/24/09. *LJ THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE WORK COULD NOT BE DONE ON THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE LIGHTS WERE WIRED THROUGH THE COMPUTER AND THEY COULD NOT WIRE THE UNIT TO HAVE TAILLIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS OR BRAKE LIGHTS. WIRING TO ANY LIGHTS COULD OR WOULD BURN UP THE COMPUTER. UPDATED 02/24/09. *JB
