Consumer Description

THE PARK LIGHT/DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ARE CONSTANTLY MELTING THE AMBER LENS. THE BULB SOCKET MELTS CAUSING THE TURN SIGNAL NOT TO WORK. EVERY FEW MONTHS I HAVE TO REMOVE HEADLIGHT LAMP AND FIX BULB SO IT WILL WORK. I HAVE SEEN A NUMBER OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR MALIBUS. CHEVROLET NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS MANY AS ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM.
