Consumer Description

WHEN TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE, THE MOLDING PIECE THAT SURROUNDS THE REAR THIRD BRAKE LIGHT FLEW OFF AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WAS LEFT DANGLING AGAINST THE READ WINDOW. THANKFULLY THERE WAS NO ONE IMMEDIATELY BEHIND US, SO THE PART DID NOT HIT A VEHICLE. AFTER MANY CALLS TO AREA BODY SHOPS I'M BEING TOLD THIS IS A "KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS PART" AND OUR ONLY OPTION IS TO PAY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR A NEW PART FROM CHEVROLET AND THEN PAY HUNDREDS MORE TO HAVE IT PAINTED AND INSTALLED! *TR
