My car has had an exterior lighting problem related to a bad FRM. This is causing my lights not to work. After seeking help, I saw that there was an actual recall on the FRM and I decided to take my car to International Mini dealership in Wisconsin.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 MINI COOPER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH THE HEADLIGHTS DID NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT ILLUMINATION RANGE. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THEY ARE REQUIRED BY LAW TO ILLUMINATE THAT WAY SO OTHER DRIVERS ARE NOT BLINDED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE BUT WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE ILLUMINATION RANGE . THE CONTACT STATED THAT THEY DO NOT ILLUMINATE FAR ENOUGH TO SEE IN FRONT OF HIM. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 11,900.
I FILLED OUT YOUR SAFETY COMPLAINT PORTABLE FROM BUT COULD NOT SUBMIT IT. WHEN I USED THE LINK ON THE PDF FORM, IT TOLD ME THERE WAS NO SUCH ADDRESS, AND WHEN I USED THE LINK IN THE COVERING E-MAIL, I REPEATEDLY RECEIVED THE MESSAGE "FILE SELECTED IS NOT A PORTABLE FORM!." IS THERE ANOTHER WAY TO SUBMIT IT? *TR
