And they said I had change the taillamp, I told the guy this led taillamp was original from C&C for 2016 model lancer ex, the issue is I been driving for the pass 1 year plus and this issue happen right after I service with them in December 2018, I didn't even touch my taillamp before how could the resistor cut away and the insisted me to change the whole taillamp for $800 plus in order not to have the same problem again, what I am not happy is about they accuse me for cutting it away, any bro can advise me what should I do? I am really lost for now ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kb27 Supersonic January 18, 2019 Share January 18, 2019 Your car probably has other problem. The LED or resistor is just an excuse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic January 18, 2019 Share January 18, 2019 I think it's a gearbox issue and nothing to do with tail lights. It's like you got stomach ache and the doctor says to cure it you need a circumcision. $800 for a resistor? Ask them if it's made of gold. Do you look innocent that they think they can makan you and go for seconds? Make yourself look tougher. Get some tattoos. The bubble gum ones that are not permanent will do. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really lost for now if your car have really been serviced by the only, then you should raise issues with them, ask to talk to their manager: 1. why the resistor is missing after servicing by them. 2, a resistor should be a separate module, there is no need to replace the lamp. Why need to replace the lamp and how would a $5 component resistor cost $800? 3. they should also put back the resistor for you if the car has been serviced by them, next is after putting it back, how sure they would be that the problem would be resolved? 4. if problem persist, what is their plan B? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mkl22 Twincharged January 19, 2019 Share January 19, 2019 (edited) I would say the only thing I would buy from C&C are their shares. They really take care of their shareholders and aggressively keep their profit!!! Edited January 19, 2019 by Mkl22 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buadongdong Twincharged January 19, 2019 Share January 19, 2019 Sounds more like a gearbox issue leh.. better send for 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th opinions... So many WS in SG.. Im sure can diagnose it properly one... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sHy3r 4th Gear January 19, 2019 Share January 19, 2019 It originally from C&C when I got itR u the 1st owner? And what has the taillamp link to accelerator? Im puzzled... But if C&C ask u to change, u can claim warranty if it’s still under 5 yrs. the only thing is... do they honour ur warranty? Did u service with them? Last yr, which is my final warranty year, i get to change my alternator and aircon compressor under warranty with them. I am not sure why they ask u to pay if it’s under warranty. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

walkofwinners 4th Gear January 19, 2019 Share January 19, 2019 Lucky I didnt buy the lancer in 2017, cnc is really a joke. Post on their Facebook, your car is under warranty anyway and ask them how on earth a tail lamp is related to car not being able to accelerate. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
