Consumer Description

TOOK CAR TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP, FOR NHTSA ID: 14V252000/GM SAFETY RECALL: 13036, TO CORRECT THE ISSUES IN THE BODY CONTROL MODULE WHICH IMPACTED THE BRAKE APPLY SENSOR. NOW REAR TOP BRAKE LIGHTS NO LONGER ILLUMINATE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS BEING PUSHED. FRONT LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS GOES ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. REPLACED BOTH LOW-BEAM LIGHTS ON 12/6/2014. FRONT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS STILL GOES OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY. ALSO UPON VISUAL INSPECTION, THE TURN SIGNAL BLINKERS HAVE MELTED THE YELLOW PLASTIC INSIDE THE HEADLIGHT. BROUGHT BACK TO THE SAME CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP ON 1/2/2015, FOR VEHICLE RECALL NHTSA ID: 14V224000/GM SAFETY RECALL 14152 TO HAVE THE SHIFT CABLE ASSEMBLY AND MOUNTING BRACKET INSTALLED. I NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP THAT I WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TIED TO THE EXTERIOR LIGHTING SYSTEM. THEY COULD NOT PROVIDE ME THE REASON FOR THE FAULT. *TR
