Daytime running lights almost caused two accidents. The other vehicle's, especially the trucks, thought that the consumer was flashing the lights for them to allow him to pass and was run off of the road each time.
Vehicle was parked, engine was turned off. Electrical short in the interior mounted stop lamp assembly which caused an electrical fire that burned the whole interior inside of vehicle. Prior to the fire mounted stop lamp assembly bulb had burned out, dealer replaced bulb. Fire smothered itself out. Ak.
Because of problems with the turn signal mechanism the wipers stop on there own at any given time and now the brake lights do not work at all, per the dealers inspection. No repairs have been done yet as I believe this should be a recall of a very serious matter!.
