Consumer Description

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT CONTINUES TO BURN OUT AND THE BULB HARNESS DOES NOT SECURELY HOLD THE BULB. MULTIPLE FAILURES OF THE HARNESS AND BULBS MAKE DRIVING AT NIGHT A SAFETY HAZARD. BASED ON OUR MECHANICS OPINION, THE FAULT IS A POOR DESIGN OF THE PART AND IT SHOULD BE REDESIGNED AND RECALLED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS SO FAR AND AT A COST TO REPAIR/REPLACE EACH TIME.
