| Description of the problem | My brake lights are constantly blowing out on the passenger side of the vehicle. I have replaced the light several times. I took my car to the hyundai dealership where i bought the car to have them inspect the problem. They found that there is an electrical issues and will cost a couple hundred to repair, which at this time i can't afford. Since the diagnosis i have seen numerous same model cars with the same problem. I have even spoken to a couple owners who have expressed their frustration. This needs further investigation and to be recalled |
