Consumer Description

OVER THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS I HAVE NOTICED MY HEADLIGHT LENS WERE FOGGING UP TO THE POINT WHERE THEY WERE NOT FUNCTIONING SAFELY. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE SHOP WHERE THEY USED AN EMULSIFIER LIQUID TO PARTIALLY RESTORE THE LENSES. THEN I NOTICED THAT OTHER CARS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS WAS NOT A PROBLEM WHEN THE MANUFACTURERS USED GLASS LENSES. NOW THEY USE PLASTIC. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO ENCOURAGE AUTO MANUFACTURERS TO PLACE SAFE NO-FOG LENSES IN THEIR NEW VEHICLES?
