| Description of the problem | When my brake light bulb went out we tried to change it. It was melted into socket. Took to dealer they said 250. 00 for each side. Both sides had melted in. You dont just replace the socket u replace wires and all. 250. 00 each side everytime they go out. I have since learned this happens in all hyundai models and years. Why are they not recalled? |
