NHTSA Complaint #11111660 — 2005 HONDA CR-V

MY HEADLIGHT BULBS BURN-OUT AFTER ONLY 4-6 WEEKS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS. THE SHORT-BULB-LIFE EVENT OCCURS ABOUT 70% ON THE DRIVER SIDE, AND ABOUT 30% ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THERE IS NO SIGN OF MOISTURE ENTERING THE BULB/LIGHT AREA. THIS IS A CONSTANT SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME SINCE THE PROBLEM MEANS I AM OFTEN DRIVING WITH ONLY ONE HEADLIGHT. THIS PROBLEM IS ALSO VERY EXPENSIVE-- APPROXIMATELY 12-15 NEW BULBS PER YEAR ! THE BULBS BURN OUT WHEN DRIVING ON ROADS OF ALL TYPES. ON THIS FORM BELOW, WHERE "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?" IS REQUESTED, I HAVE ENTERED THE DATE OF THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE (BULB BURNED OUT AFTER ONLY 5 WEEKS OF LIFE) ALTHOUGH AS STATED ABOVE,THIS EVENT HAS BEEN HAPPENING REGULARLY FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS.
