Has anyone else had any problems with their tail's? Got a 97 Catera and the lower light pannel is like 8 little sections and one is dead...the dealership says the only way to fix it is to replace the whole strip....also, the 3rd brake light above it has a section of it out and once again, either replace the whole thing or live with it. :bloated:

Sorry to hear about your problem, May I suggest to live with it. At least the lights are working. I found getting parts for my friends CTS was less costly than my 97Catera. Good Luck

The 3rd brake light is an LED strip.....I had to purchase the whole light...$195 at the dealership....
