Consumer Description

MOISTURE BUILT UP IN THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT CAUSE THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY TO FAIL. I PAID TO HAVE IT REPLACED LAST YEAR AND NOW THE PASSENGERS SIDE HAS DONE THE EXACT SAME THING. IT IS A CONDENSATION PROBLEM CAUSING THE UNITS TO FAIL AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE! WHEN YOUR HEADLIGHT GOES OUT WITHOUT WARNING ON A STORMY NIGHT IT IS DANGEROUS NOT ONLY FOR YOU BUT ANYONE IN THE AREA AROUND YOU SINCE YOU HAVE SUCH LOW VISIBILITY. I STILL HAVE THE OLD HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY IF ANY ONE WOULD LIKE TO REVIEW IT OR CHECK FOR DAMAGE.
