NHTSA Complaint #10436636 — 2007 GMC CANYON

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I PURCHASED MY 2007 GMC CANYON IN FEBRUARY 2007 WITH TRAILER HARNESS AS STANDARD EQUIPMENT AT FRESARD GMC. I ACTUALLY ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT DUE TO ALL MY BRAKE LIGHTS NOT WORKING. I CALLED GMC TO REPORT THIS INCIDENT DUE TO INTERNET RESEARCH ON RECALL FOR BRAKE LIGHT FAILURE. THE REP TRIED TO DENY RECALL BUT I EXPLAINED TO HER ABOUT RECALL. SHE LOCATED CLOSEST DEALER WHICH WAS RED HOLMAN GMC FOR RECALL ON BRAKE LIGHT FAILURE BUT THEY ARE TRYING TO CHARGE ME $300 FOR NEW TRAILER HARNESS PLUS ADDITIONAL LABOR COST. THE DEALERSHIP IS STATING THAT WATER GOT INTO MY TRAILER HARNESS WHICH CAUSED ALL THE LIGHTS TO STOP WORKING. I HAVE NOT USED THE TRAILER AND LEARNED IT WAS INCORRECTLY INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY. CAN YOU PLEASE ASSIST ME WITH THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THIS IS MY PRIMARY TRANSPORTATION? [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
