| 2006 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I WOULD LIKE TO RAISE CONCERN FOR A REAR DEFROSTER FAILURE ON 06+ MONTE CARLO'S AS WELL AS IMPALA'S. THERE IS A FAULTY CONNECTOR IN THE IN LINE FUSE BOX CAUSING A MAJOR FIRE HAZARD. I HAVE SEEN MANY PEOPLE RAISE THIS ISSUE AS A VERY DANGEROUS FIRE HAZARD ONLINE, WONDERING WHY THEY SEE RECALLS FOR REAR DEFROSTER ISSUES WITHOUT A FIRE HAZARD YET NOTHING FOR THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE. IT CAUSES MAJOR BURNING ON THE WIRE AND PLASTIC FUSE BOX. THE CONCERN WOULD BE WHEN WE LOSE A LIFE IN A CAR FIRE SIMPLY BECAUSE OF THEIR NEGLIGENCE ON THIS ISSUE. I HOPE IT DOESN'T TAKE THE LOSS OF A LIFE OR WORSE LIFE OF A CHILD TO MAKE THEM GET IN GEAR WITH THIS. *TR |
