Such irregularities in the lighting system can also lead to eye strain and general inconveniences for myself and other occupants. I urge you to undertake necessary repairs or upgrades to eliminate this hazardous issue and stabilize the lighting throughout the property. 3. Wiring Hazards: There are visible signs of wiring hazards in certain areas of the property, including frayed or exposed wires. This poses a significant electrical safety risk to all occupants. I kindly request you to inspect and repair the damaged or unsafe wiring to prevent potential electric shock, short circuits, or even fires. Swift resolution of this matter is crucial to maintaining a secure and hazard-free living environment. I am certain that, as a responsible landlord, you share my concerns for the safety and well-being of all residents. In accordance with the lease agreement and California law, it is your obligation to maintain the rented property in a habitable condition. It is my hope that you will take my concerns seriously and prioritize the necessary repairs. Considering the urgency and potential risks involved, I kindly request that you respond in writing within {reasonable timeframe} to confirm the course of action you will take to rectify the unsafe or broken lights and wiring issues.

I trust that you will take the necessary steps to ensure the property is restored to a safe and habitable condition without further delay.
