Consumer Description

MULTIPLE INCIDENTS OF HEADLAMP BURNING OUT IN RAPID SUCCESSION. REPLACED EACH TIME WITH NEW ONLY TO HAPPEN AGAIN. WIRES ON HARNESS FOR HEADLAMP ARE MELTING, CAUSING BURNOUT. DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE TO REPLACE "HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY" (PN 57010411AE/AC/AD), BUT THERE IS A RECALL ON POLICE MODELS FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE UNDER CHRYSLER M01 RECALL/NHTSA RECALL 12V042000. CHRYSLER SAYS RECALL COMPLETE AND REFUSES TO FIX FOR FREE, BUT OBVIOUSLY THOSE PREVIOUSLY RECALLED VEHICLES WEREN'T THE ONLY ONES AFFECTED AS EVIDENCED BY OTHER COMPLAINTS HERE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SPEND NEARLY $500 TO REPAIR A KNOWN ISSUE ON A TWO YEAR OLD VEHICLE. *TR
