Consumer Description

LEFT AND RIGHT BRAKING LIGHTS SOME TIME DO NOT WORK WHEN BRAKING. ONLY THE REVERSE LIGHT WILL WORK WHILE THE BRAKING LIGHT WILL NOT. TO ADD, WHEN THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS ARE ON, SOME TIMES THE LEFT AND RIGHT TAIL LIGHTS (LIGHT THAT IS ON WHEN NOT BRAKING) AND BRAKING LIGHTS WILL NOT WORK. I HAVE HAD TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE PULL UP NEXT TO ME SAYING MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE OUT IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. HOWEVER, I HAVE OBSERVED WHEN THEY ARE WORKING IN THAT SAME TIME SPAN. THE LAST TWO DAYS, ONLY THE RIGHT TAIL/BRAKING LIGHT IS NOT WORK.
