Consumer Description

MOISTURE/CONDENSATION IN HEADLAMP DUE TO MANUFACTURE DEFECT( KNOWN FOR SEVERAL YEARS BY TOYOTA). DEALER CLAIMS NOT UNDER WARRANTY (COSMETIC). IT IS A HAZARD AS WHOLE SYSTEM CAN FAIL AT ANY TIME (NIGHT) MANY COMPLAINTS FILED AND NO ACTION TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BY TOYOTA. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT ONLY A LEXUS/TOYOTA DEALER CAN INSTALL REPLACEMENTS AT A HIGH COST TO CONSUMER ( $1500 ). THE MOISTURE BUILDUP IS PRESENTLY ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, HOWEVER WHEN THE OTHER FAILS...AND HOW MANY TIMES THIS MAY HAPPEN WITHOUT A TRUE "FIX". *TR
