Consumer Description

HEADLIGHTS GO OUT ON BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE FAR TOO OFTEN. SOMETIMES A THUMP TO THE LIGHT COVER OR BODY BY THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY WILL TURN THE LIGHT BACK ON. THE LIGHTS WILL EVENTUALLY BURN OUT FAR TOO OFTEN AS WELL. I HAVE REPLACED ABOUT 7 HEADLIGHTS SINCE BUYING NEW. IT IS DANGEROUS AS BOTH LIGHTS HAVE GONE OFF AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING. LIGHT WILL GO OFF WHILE DRIVING AND SOMETIMES NOT TURN ON WHEN STARTED. THERE ARE EVEN YOU TUBE VIDEOS WITH PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FROM ABOUT A YEAR AFTER NEW PURCHASE.
