Consumer Description

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE STOPPED WORKING OVER SIX (6) TIMES IN TWO PLUS (2+) YEARS (CAR PURCHASED USED, 11/2015). SPENT A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS ON REPLACEMENT BULBS; REPLACED THE HOUSING UNIT TO SEE IF THAT CORRECTED THE ISSUE AND IT WORKED FOR A FEW MONTHS; FINALLY IN APRIL 2018 WENT TO HALL HONDA (VIRGINIA BEACH, VA) TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. THEY JUST SAID THE BULB WAS BAD AND REPLACED IT. I DRIVE WITH LIGHTS ON DURING THE DAY AND YESTERDAY (7/20/2018) I NOTICED THAT MY LIGHTS WEREN'T REFLECTING ON THE CARS IN FRONT OF ME WHILE DRIVING. ONCE PARKED, I CHECKED AND LOW BEAMS NOT OPERATIONAL, BUT HIGH BEAMS WORK. THIS MORNING I CALLED HALL HONDA AND HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO GO IN TODAY (7/21/2018) AT 1:45 PM. I HAVE PRINTED OUT INFO FROM ONLINE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE. THERE WAS A RECALL, BUT IT ONLY WENT TO THE CAR YEAR 2005. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUE SINCE HEADLIGHTS ARE NEEDED WHEN DRIVING IN RAIN (IT IS THE LAW HERE IN VA) OR WHEN IT IS DUSK/DARK. LISTING YESTERDAY AS THE DATE THIS HAPPENED, ALTHOUGH IT HAPPENED FIRST TO ME FEBRUARY 2016. I ALSO CHECKED OFF THE ELECTRICAL AND LIGHTING BOXES, SINCE I AM NOT QUALIFIED TO DETERMINE WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE.
