Consumer Description
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS BULB MELTING, BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE, RESULTING IN BURNING OF HEADLIGHT HOUSING. BULB CAN NO LONGER BE HELD IN PLACE BECAUSE MOUNTING FIXTURE IS MELTED AWAY. THE EXISTING BULBS ARE MADE OF PLASTIC. I BELIEVE THE FILAMENT IS OVERHEATING THE PLASTIC BULB AND CAUSING A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.
