1 Back Up Lights problem of the 2008 Mazda MAZDA3

Failure Date: 02/08/2013

I was informed by my friend driving in back of me that my brake lights seemed to be melting away, I looked at the light and realized it was the light bulb melting the cover for the brake. I asked Mazda what was the reason but they didn't look into it and just advised me the amount I would need to have this fixed but because they advised me that I have to pay for this damage that looks like a manufacturer damage, I just left it alone until the light bulb went out and I have to be very careful to replace it not to get hurt from it. As 1 month passed, I realized that the cover was melting away and it looked just like a backup light and also realized that my right side was doing the same. I thought it this red cover wears away, this can be dangerous for the drivers in back of me that would only pay attention to the red lights when I hit the brake. This may be a hazard on the road and lead to accidents if drivers were not paying close attention that my brake light was no longer red. I then started doing research and noticed on the Mazda forum that many others had the same situation as me, hopefully you can look into it.
