My vehicle was sold originally in California and has been a California registered vehicle at all times. It has rear fog lights installed with it's own separate switch on cluster dash for them. This vehicle does not comply with the California vehicle code 24602 fog tail lamps or rear fog lights. As the code states: 24602.(B)(3) the edge of the lens of the lamp shall be no closer than four inches from the edge of the lens of any stop lamp or brake. This vehicles rear fog light lenses and brake light lenses are right up against each other with no space given between them. I have asked the manufacturer owner, which was General Motors at the time to remedy issue. They have declined any assistance. I have explained this is a safety issues which was written into California law for a purpose. The problem is when using them when warranted atmospheric conditions require and do to their placement it can be construed as if the vehicle is braking as coming to a stop or stopped. I vehicle behind it could panic brake or hard steer to right or left causing an accident. I have also written to the original sales dealer for assistance. I believe this should have been a recall for this model vehicle. Your assistance and investigation into this appreciated.
