| My 97 chevy monte carlo has had no lower brake lights for some time . i had my car checked by an auto electrician and was told that the problem was so severe and it would probably never find the source of the problem. i am very concerned with this issue being it may cause serious injury to my self/family or others. as i drive on the road i notice many autos of the same year and type have the same problem so i know its not only my vehicle .i thought it could of been the factory installed security system so i had it uninstalled to come to the fact that it was not the security system after all. please help with this issue . this is my only source of transportation as i am disabled and cannot afford another vehicle . i have put constant repairs on this car , fuel inj tank, etc. again please address this urgent issue. *tr | |||

| This is my second gm vehicle with the same malfunction. first, the windshield wipers would not turn on. then the right blinker would not work (stays solid, doesn't flash). then there was a small fire accompanied by a lot of smoke coming from the steering column. this is a 1997 chevy monte carlo. the other car i had with the same malfunction was a 1995 chevy beretta. all repairs are costly. *jb | |||
