Consumer Description

THE HEADLAMPS BEGAN TAKING IN MOISTURE AND THEN SHORTING OUT EVERY TIME IT RAINS. WHEN YOU SEARCH ON THE INTERNET, IT IS AN OVERWHELMING PROBLEM IN PRIMARILY 2004-2006 HONDA PILOTS. I TOOK IT IN FOR THE WIRING RECALL BUT THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO. THEY JUST SHORTED OUT AGAIN WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT. VERY DANGEROUS. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 6 TIMES. ALTHOUGH THE WIRING WAS RECALLED, ONLY THE HEADLIGHTS COLLECT MOISTURE AND RUST. I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1099 AND THEY HAVE CONTINUALLY SAID THEY WOULD GET BACK TO ME BUT NEVER HAVE. ER.YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP IN THIS MAT. *TR
