Your car has been stalling and losing all power while you're driving, with incidents occurring on the road over the past week. You suspect this may be related to two unresolved recalls on your vehicle. The stalling has left you stranded multiple times and without reliable transportation.

Your right tail light burned out, and when you opened the assembly to replace the bulb, you found the bulb socket and surrounding red plastic housing were scorched black and melted. The plastic had warped so much you had to scrape it with a knife to fit a new bulb through, and you had to use duct tape to hold the socket in place. You also discovered your left tail light assembly had melted previously, with the same duct tape repair already in place. The tail light assembly and socket will likely need to be replaced to restore proper function and appearance.

TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY ON BOTH SIDES ($200 EACH TO REPLACE) ARE MELTING FROM THE HEAT OF THE STOP/TAIL LIGHT BULB. I SEE MANY OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS TO NHTSA. IT NECESSITATES PUTTING IN LOWER WATTAGE BULBS WHICH ARE NOT AS BRIGHT AS THE ORIGINAL. THIS WAS DISCOVERED WHEN REPLACING A BULB.
