Brake lights went out and when I changed them there was water in the light caseing, so when I took the bulb out the circut board got corrosion from the water and there was no lights at all after I replaced the bulbs. I took car in to bergstrom Chevrolet and got a dianogstic, which said circut boards where inop and that costed me $47.17. 8/21/04 I got lights fixed and that costed $176.24 I had to come out of my pocket, becasue the extended warrianty wouldn't cover cost. I feel this should be a recall, because water should have never gotten into the lights.
