Description of the problem	See e-mail exchange: dear [xxx] : thank you for contacting hyundai motor america. We apologize you were not satisfied with our previous email. We appreciate the opportunity to address your comments regarding the rear brake light in your 2006 hyundai sonata. We understand how this can be frustrating to you. However, we are unable to provide instructions on how to replace the rear brake light. In addition, this information is withheld from your owner's manual, as it is only recommended that the replacement be completed by an authorized hyundai dealership to ensure it is done to hyundai specifications. If you choose to complete this replacement without the assistance of your dealership, to ensure it is done correctly, it is recommended that you purchase a service manual. However, it is not required. The warranty coverage for bulb replacement is 12 months from the date of first use (dfu), or 12,000 miles, whichever occurs first, for factory defect in part or workmanship only. Hyundai's written warranties are legally binding agreements that can't be altered or extended for any reason. In addition, hyundai dealerships are independently owned and operated, and set their own pricing on vehicles they sell and services they provide. We are unable to regulate any service costs, or force your dealership to complete the service free of charge. We apologize about any disappointment this may cause.
