Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Oldsmobile has published a remedy for the constant tail/stop lamp failures. they extended the warranty to 6yr/72000 miles. not much for a 5 dollar bulb, but after 8 bulb replacements (4 by dealer 4 by me) i think there are other problems besides defective bulbs. if that is the problem someone better let sylvania (bulb manufacturer) know. this is a safety problem that is fixed for now, but may turn out to be a more serious electrical problem later. my wife loves her truck (no other problems), but is really frustrating.
