Consumer Description
THE VEHICLE CONTINUOUSLY HAS LEFT REAR BREAK LIKE/TURN LIGHT MALFUNCTION WARNINGS. IN RESEARCHING THIS IS KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL DUE TO THE GROUND WIRE OVERHEATING AND MELTING THE PLASTIC IN THE WIRING HARNESS CONNECTOR AND BULB CARRIER. THIS COURSES THE CONNECTOR PIN IN THE CONNECTOR TO MELT AND BREAK OFF. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THESE PARTS TWICE IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS. THE ISSUE SEEMS TO BE THAT THE GROUND WIRE IS NOT LARGE ENOUGH TO HANDLE THE CURRENT.
