I am writing to bring to your attention a crucial matter that requires immediate attention regarding the lighting and wiring situation in my rented residence at [Insert Property Address], Pomona, California. Firstly, I wish to express my appreciation for your prompt responsiveness in the past when it came to addressing maintenance issues within the property. However, I regretfully bring to your attention the current disrepair of the lights and electrical wiring within my unit, which is now posing serious safety concerns and risks. 1. Unsafe Lighting Conditions: The lighting fixtures in various rooms of the property have been malfunctioning for some time. Specifically, the following areas are affected: — Kitchen: The overhead light fixture is no longer functional, leaving the workspace in complete darkness during nighttime. — Bedroom: The ceiling-mounted light fixture flickers intermittently, which may indicate an electrical connection issue that could pose a fire hazard. — Living Room: The overhead light fixture fluctuates in brightness and occasionally goes out unexpectedly, endangering the safety of residents and increasing the likelihood of accidents. These faulty lighting conditions significantly impede my daily activities and raise serious safety concerns. It is imperative that immediate action is taken to restore proper lighting functionality within my rented premises. 2. Broken Wiring: In addition to the lighting issues, I have encountered several broken wiring instances throughout the property, creating an environment susceptible to electrical hazards. The following instances require your immediate attention: — Inadequate Electrical Outlets: Insufficient functioning outlets create an inconvenience and necessitate the use of extension cords, which can pose a tripping risk. — Exposed Wiring: I have noticed wires that are frayed or exposed in multiple areas, such as the kitchen and bathroom, raising the concern of potential electrical shocks or fires. Given the severity of these unsafe conditions, it is essential that you take immediate steps to rectify these issues to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents within the property. In light of the aforementioned concerns, I kindly request the following actions be taken: 1. Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the lighting fixtures and electrical wiring within my unit. 2.

I trust that you will treat this matter with utmost urgency, prioritizing the safety and well-being of your tenants. I kindly request a thorough written response and a plan of action regarding the above concerns within the next five business days from the date of this letter. Should you fail to address these matters within a reasonable timeframe, I may be compelled to exercise my rights as a tenant under relevant California laws and seek legal remedies available to me. Please be aware that this letter serves as an attempt to resolve the matter amicably, without any further escalation. Thank you in advance for your prompt attention to these critical concerns.
