OK, bought my boat at Easter. Absolutely everything was brand spankin' new. About 3-4 months ago, my LED trailer lights went out. One whole side, brake and indicator (and no, it wasn't the plug or the wires, it was the actual unit).... Replaced with the supposedly better Trojan brand submersible LED lights. About 2 weeks ago I found that I've lost half of one of the brake light banks, so I need to call Trojan and find out if they actually have a warranty...
Last week, I found that my port side LED nav light has failed, and failed in the unit itself.
Took the nav light back to the store today, and get told that they need to call the distributor to find out what the distributor wants to do about it! and they couldn't call 'cause the distributor was closed.... and it even says on the back of the packet "12 month warranty" and "return to retailer for warranty claims"... all for a $50 pair of LEDs!
I certainly hope that BLA comes to the party with replacing my nav lights, I'd hate to have to put them on my list of 'business' to never support', as they seem to supply everyone!
Anyway, I'm thinking I'm just about done with LEDs. Has anyone else had these issues or is it just me?
Cheers!
