Consumer Description

DEFECTS IN HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY CAUSED WATER FROM RAIN TO ACCUMULATE INSIDE THE LAMP, OVERTIME, THE WATER CAUSED THE HI-VOLTAGE UNIT TO SHORT OUT AND THE HEADLAMP IS IN-OPERATIVE (THIS IS FOR THE LOW BEAM HID LIGHTS). REPLACEMENT COST IS $1,800 PER LAMP ASSEMBLY (DEALERS QUOTE). THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE LOW BEAM IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR DRIVING AT NIGHT. *JB
