Consumer Description

Both of my headlights have failed due to the breakdown of an interior light coating in the headlight. They are barely projecting any light forward anymore. It is not safe to drive at night with the headlights not working as designed. The Acura dealership inspected my vehicle and indicates that this is a common problem with the 2014 Acura RDX headlights and the only solution is to replace them.
