10 Ignition problem of the 1998 Chevrolet Camaro

Failure Date: 09/21/2003

98 chevy Camaro: running lights melt and cause bulb to fuse with fixture. This has already happened on this car three times. I think that this problem really needs to be investigated for recall replacement at chevy's cost. They know this part melts. They know it has a history. The part seems to have a lifespan of 2 1/2 years. I am expecting the other one to melt soon as they did the last time within a month or so of each other. It seems that chevy would rather be forced to replace a part, then simply protecting it's drivers. This is my last hope to get the running lights replaced since the part is defective. Other defective parts, moody ignition, driver side mirror, and windshield wipers.
