Consumer Description

THE PLASTIC HEADLIGHT LENSES ARE CLOUDED AND YELLOWED AND, AS A RESULT, OBSCURES THE BRIGHTNESS AND EFFECTIVENESS OF THE HEADLIGHTS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR DRIVING AT NIGHT AS THE HEADLIGHT IS DIMMED TO ONCOMING CARS AS WELLS AS IT LESSENS VISIBILITY FOR THE DRIVER. IT SHOULD NOT BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE VEHICLE OWNER TO HAVE THE HEADLIGHT LENSES REPLACED WHEN THE CLOUDINESS COULD BE DUE TO POSSIBLE DEFECTIVE MATERIALS AS THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED TO ANY OTHER CAR THAT I'VE OWNED AND ANY THAT BELONG TO OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS AND FRIENDS. THE LENSES HAVE GRADUALLY CLOUDED STARTING ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. *TR
