Consumer Description

BRAKE LIGHTS GASKETS ARE FAULTY FROM THE FACTORY AND ALLOW WATER TO FILL THE TRUNK WHEN IT RAINS. WHICH LEADS TO MOLD AND MILDEW SMELL THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE. GM HAS PRODUCED A GASKET THAT IS "THICKER" AND CORRECTS THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSE TO ISSUE A RECALL AND DEALER SAYS ITS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. I'VE SPENT HUNDREDS AT DEALERSHIPS TRYING TO FIND FIND CAUSE OF THE WATER.
