    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

I took my Telluride in for the recall to correct my brake lights to work while the cruise control is engaged when towing only. They performed the recall and the next time i hooked up my trailer which was 3 weeks later the brake lights on the trailer did not work at all- so I manually checked with a test light at the female connector coming out of the vehicle. I had running lights, and left and right turn signals but NO brake voltage at all - I am taking it back in tomorrow - anyone had the recall and then checked it with a trailer or just a test light-

Took it back to dealer yesterday and they fixed a lose connection with the recall wire harness- all good now!!!
 
I had mine done and it all worked fine after, glad to hear it was just a loose connection.

did you hook it up to a trailer?- the vehicle brake lights always worked, just did not work on trailer until i got it fixed yesterday- you must check with test light or a working trailer

I tested with both. I have a little in-line tester and I checked the trailer.
 
great- I love my telluride, have you had any paint chip off hood from debris on road?
Not that I have noticed. Nothing on the hood. Just a few battle scars of the family hauler from kids opening and closing the doors in the garage.
 
I had mine done and now the horn beeps any time I lock and unlock the car haha. Haven’t figured out how to turn off 🤷‍♂️
