Consumer Description

I am the original owner of my 2014 Acura RDX. The main headlights are failing and not emitting enough light making it extremely unsafe to drive. I installed brand new Sylvania H11 Xtravision bulbs. There was no change to the light emitted from the headlight. There is no damage or leakage to the headlights. I believe the headlight assembly reflector is failing inside the headlight and is defective. The vehicle is available for inspection. I have not contacted the dealer since there is no known recall at this time. There are no other indicators or warning message on the vehicle. The vehicle is stored in a garage and headlights are clear and not hazing. I have read many reports on the internet regarding owners having the same issue with the 2014 Acura RDX.
