1998 Chevrolet Malibu Owner Comments

Serveral times (5+) the left rear tail light would burn out. I replaced the bulb myself and note that the connection and bulb had overheated. Current, on going problem is the dash/instrument cluster lighting. The instrument lights go on and off, as they feel like it. The lights currently are out. I checked all fuses and breakers. All tested okay. I really hate this car and no more GM products for me, ever!
