problem #1

Apr 062005

SLK 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 33,139 miles
Rear brake light bulb holder melted and fused to the rear tail light assembly on both the left and right sides of my 2002 Mercedes-Benz slk32 amg. When bulbs do fail it is impossible to replace them. It is also a potential fire hazard due to the melted plastic. Both entire rear tail light assemblies were replaced.
