DAYTIME RUNNING LAMP ON DRIVERS SIDE IS HEATING AND MELTING THE HOUSING CAUSING A RISK FOR A FIRE!

WHEN IT RAINS EITHER HEAVILY OR FOR LONG PERIODS IN CHICAGO MY GMC TENDS TO FLOOD IN THE PASSENGER FLOOR AND BY THE TV AND 3RD ROW LIGHTS. I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE SINCE WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN 2013. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 6 YEARS AND I HAVE TAKEN IN TO A DEALERSHIP ONCE AND THEY QUOTED ME CLOSE TO $500 TO DO A TEST AND LET WATER RAIN ON THE CAR AND SEE IF IT IS A MANUFACTURE OR OWNER FAULTY ISSUE. I DID NOT JUMP ON TOP OF MY CAR AND CREATE A PROBLEM SO THAT MY CAR GETS FLOODED OR TO CAUSE THIS THAT I HAVE TO ALWAYS PLACE A TOWEL AND LEAVE MY WINDOWS OPEN AFTER SO THAT IT DOES NOT FOG THE ENTIRE CAR. I HAVE 4 CHILDREN AND DROPLETS HAVE FALLEN ON MY 7 MONTH OLD BABY WHILE I'M DRIVING. NO ONE CAN SIT IN THE PASSENGER SIDE. I HAVE HAD MY CAR DETAILED IN THE PAST SO THE MOLDING SMELL DOESN'T CAUSE MY KIDS TO WANT TO THROW UP. AIRBAGS SAY SERVICE AIRBAGS WHEN THEY HASN'T OPENED AND HASN'T GOTTEN INTO AN ACCIDENT IN THAT CAR. IT FRIGHTEN ME THAT I'M DRIVING A UNSAFE CAR WITH 4 CHILDREN....

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 GMC ACADIA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER ENTERED INTO THE REAR WINDOW CONTROL BUTTON AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND COOLANT INDICATORS ILLUMINATED.
