Consumer Description

MY CAMRY HAS AN ADDED SPOILER, NOT SURE WEATHER IT WAS FACTORY OR DEALER INSTALLED. THE BRAKE LIGHT THAT IS NORMALLY IN THE REAR WINDOW WAS LEFT HANGING IN THE TRUNK AS IT WAS SUPERSEDED BY THE ONE IN THE SPOILER. THE BULB WAS LEFT INSTALLED AS IT CAUSED A BRAKE LIGHT FAULT ON THE DASH WHEN DISCONNECTED. LAST WEEK WHEN I HAD A FULL TRUNK WE STARTED TO SMELL SMOKE AND COULD NOT FIGURE WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM. WE FOUND THAT A CARDBOARD BOX IN THE TRUNK HAD COME IN CONTACT WITH THE UNUSED BULB WHICH HAD BURNED A HOLE THROUGH THE BOX WHEN BRAKING ,BUT FORTUNATELY IT DID NOT IGNITE. I WILL CONTACT THE DEALER TOMORROW TO SEE IF THEY CAN RELOCATE THE BULB TO A SAFE LOCATION. *TT
