Consumer Description

I'VE REPEATEDLY HAD TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHTS IN THIS CAR EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS. WHEN ONE LIGHT IS REPLACED, THE OTHER SIDE GOES OUT NEXT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS. I HAVE 189,000 MILES ON THE CAR NOW. I DON'T REMEMBER EXACTLY WHEN IT STARTED. MY DRIVER SEAT ALSO STOPPED WORKING. THE BACK GOES FORWARD AND BACK, BUT THE BASE SEAT DOESN'T MOVE. *TR
