Safety notice Pt Cruiser 2008 car wash water can readily infiltrate the rear tail lights through the anterior vent, and cause both rear stop lamps to immediately heat fracture in the 2008 Pt Cruiser while washed by an automatic system. The high pressure water enters through the top and glides back off the cavity boss, and runs down into the open vent. The vent shield is ineffective to this level of water flow. Additionally, the vent is paced at the top of the light allowing for water to drip directly on a hot bulb. Preferably, the vent should be a bottom drain; but this would require redesign. (delta sonic , touch car wash route 277 orchard park, NY) my name is rc mechanical engineering b. S. Previous automotive fuel system safety product validation engineer, and now a hvac controls engineer. The likely failure mode of having a car wash is probably high speed impact at a stop light during night time driving. People could die. I recommend a service repair where narrow bent tube is aluminum taped to the existing vent.
