    Installed my Putco Blade 2 years ago. I think it makes for a safer truck with increased brake light visibility, but I've noticed that some of the LED's are burned out. How's yours?

    Mine is 2 years old also, no issues.
    I was behind a Ford F-150 with the Blade and his EXACT SAME LED's were out also. :monocle:

    On a positive note, Putco sent me a warranty replacement.

    So my son noticed on Saturday that 2 of my LED's were out. I called PUTCO and they told me that they can't send me a replacement without a receipt. I explained that I bought it at a car show and they didn't give me a receipt. So buyer beware ....make sure to get a receipt.:( If I had a receipt they would send me a replacement. It's a great light and I love it just wish they would have honored my request.

    I already got a warranty replacement after a year because one side wasn’t flashing when the signal was on or the hazards. Now the replacement has a few lights out like yours.

    Not yet. I did look last week to confirm the warranty length. 3 years is pretty good.
