Consumer Description

THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT IN THE TRUCK IS LEAKING AND CAUSING WATER TO COME INSIDE THE CAB AND STAIN THE HEADLINER. WATER INSIDE THE CAB COULD CAUSE MOLD TO GROW AND CAUSE SERIOUS HEALTH CONCERNS. IT COULD ALSO CAUSE ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THIS HAS BEEN A GRADUAL ISSUE OVER TIME AND HAS BEEN CONFIRMED LEAKING BY THE DEALERSHIP. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AS THE WATER LINE IS EVEN AROUND THE REAR AIRBAG AND COULD CAUSE A MALFUNCTION LEADING TO INJURY OR DEATH AS A RESULT OF A CRASH.
