Consumer Description

Last night 9/5/22 I went to change out my brake light on driver side which should have been very simple when next thing I know I’m having a very hard time twisting the socket to remove from housing because it had fused the plastic together from burning. Idk if you think it’s normal but to me that’s a very susceptible spot for a car fire. Anyways I decided to check passenger side and again same issue. The last pic was of the passenger side burnt end of the brake light.
