Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2010 SUBARU OUTBACK. BEGINNING IN DECEMBER 2012 I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE BURNED OUT HEADLIGHTS FOUR TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR. BESIDES THE COST... IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE CONSIDERING VISIBILITY IS HALF OF WHAT IT SHOULD BE WHEN THEY BLOW OUT. I NEVER KNOW WHEN I'M GOING TO PULL THE SWITCH AND NOT HAVE LIGHTS. *TR
