Consumer Description

DRIVER SIDE HEADLAMP HAS CONDENSATION IN IT CAUSING IT TO QUIT WORKING. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE GARAGE AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE BUICK REGAL. I WAS GIVEN A REPAIR COST OF OVER $1600. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THIS WILL PROBABLY OCCUR AGAIN. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THAT MY HEADLIGHT WAS NOT WORKING UNTIL I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT NIGHT AND ANOTHER VEHICLE FLASHED THEIR HIGH BEAMS AT ME.
