problem #1

Aug 202007

Impala 6-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • miles
Purchased a second Chevrolet Impala with same defect with tail light compartment. Holds water indefinitely, not just condensation. I now have a 2003 and used to have a 2002 with same problem. Causes light bulbs to go out frequently and also alarm will go off when opening trunk which I suspect maybe a short in wiring due to water. I have contacted a local Chevrolet dealer's service dept as well as GM corporate and they are familiar with problem but no with no recalls yet to provide resolution of what I believe is a safey hazard when light bulbs continue to go out. Of course they want me to pay to replace defective taillight assembly that may still have some condensation problems.
