Consumer Description
SINCE ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER BUYING THIS, THE HEADLIGHTS WILL RANDOMLY GO OUT ALL THE TIME. I HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER COUNTLESS TIMES. IT'S A COMPLETE SAFETY HAZARD. IT'S NOT THE BULBS. IT'S THE UNDERLYING BALLASTS. WHICH I'M TOLD CAN COST UPWARDS OF $3K TO FIX. IT'S A LOT OF THEM FROM 2006-2009 MODELS. THEY WERE SUED OVER IT BUT THEY NEVER RECALLED IT. I BOUGHT MINE AFTER ALL THAT WAS LONG AND DONE SO I CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT'S A MANUFACTURER DEFAULT THAT THEY SHOULD FIX!
