2 Tail Light Switch problem of the 2004 Chevrolet Colorado

Failure Date: 05/21/2015

My cruise control and my rear driver's side top tail light went out a week or so ago. Today, my stop lights stopped working completely, including the 3rd brake light. I was almost rear ended and another driver informed me that my brake lights didn't work. After researching the issue, I discovered that the problems I'm experiencing are related to 2 switches above my brake pedal-the stop lamp switch and the brake cruise release switch. I called the chevy recall hotline and provided my VIN #. The girl lacy informed me there wasn't a recall for my vehicle and that they would do nothing to help me get the problem resolved. I've seen numerous reports online of other people with the same issue being denied as well. The reference # to my call is 71-1478975898. I believe this to be an extreme safety hazard and would like chevy to cover the cost of the repair and any accidents I may get into as a result of this problem. Thank you. Andrew bihn.

4 Tail Light Switch problem of the 2006 Chevrolet Colorado

Failure Date: 10/01/2007

Problem started with both right and left top brake light bulb sockets melting from heat. Then I replaced both brake light assemblies to the tune of $198. 00. Now when I apply brakes it blows the brake light fuse and I never know when its going to happen so the possibility of me being hit from behind at any time is very real. When I purchased the replacement tail light and brake light assemblies from the local dealer I asked if he knew of any problems or recalls on my model of vehicle he said no.
