NHTSA Complaint #10658738 — 2007 MAZDA MAZDA3

A FEW MONTHS AFTER WE BOUGHT OUR MAZDA 3 WE NOTICED THE BULBS BLEW OUT WELL COME TO FIND OUT OUR LENSES WERE MELTING AND IT GOT SO HOT THE SOCKET AND BULB BURST SO WE TOOK IT TO THE PLACE WE BOUGHT IT AND THEY WARRANTIED THEM OUT WELL GUESS WHAT THE TAIL LENSES WE GOT REPLACED MELTED AGAIN AND BLEW OUT THE BULBS. WE TOOK OUR CAR TO MAZDA AND THE TECHNICIANS FOUND NOTHING WRONG, NO GROUND PROBLEM. WELL WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE PLACE WE BOUGHT IT THINKING THEY'D BE ABLE TO WARRANTY THEM OUT SINCE THEY'RE LESS THAN A YEAR WELL THE LADY WOULDN'T DO IT. NOW I AM STUCK WITH MY SPOILER BRAKE LIGHT AND THE PASSENGER. SO WE DECIDED TO REPLACE THE BRAKE SWITCH AND SO FAR OUR PASSENGER SIDE HASN'T BLOWN OUT. I SUGGEST REPLACING IT AND SEEING WHAT HAPPENS. IT IS A $30 PART. TONIGHT I AM BUYING NEW LENSES AND PRAYING. I WENT THROUGH 4 BULBS IN THE DRIVER AND 3 BULBS IN PASSENGER. I NEED HELP FIGURING THIS OUT BECAUSE $8 FOR A PACK OF BULBS EVERY WEEK IS RIDICULOUS. *TR
