Owner Complaints (2)
Your rear passenger tail lamp housing is burnt and melted, preventing you from replacing the bulb. This creates a safety hazard due to potential fire risk and leaves you without proper turn signal or brake light operation. Even replacement housings from salvage yards have arrived with the same burnt condition. The fix will likely require replacing the entire tail lamp assembly.

Your brake light housing on the passenger side has melted from heat generated by the standard halogen bulb, causing the brake light bulb to fall out of position inside the housing. This means your brake lights may not be visible to drivers behind you when you brake, creating a safety hazard since other drivers won't know you're stopping and could rear-end your vehicle. The housing may also be at risk of fire damage. Fixing this will likely require replacing the brake light housing assembly and possibly using a different bulb type.
