All Exterior Lighting Complaints
PURCHASED IN AK IN 2007. APPROXIMATELY 13,000 MILES ON ENGINE. PAPERWORK LISTED ENTRY-POINT: HAWAII. CURRENT 2016 MILEAGE: LESS THAN 60,000. ONGOING INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS SINCE PURCHASE: DOORS' LOCKS ELECTRONIC-RESPONSES UNPREDICTABLY FAIL. SOMETIMES THEY WORK; OTHER TIMES LOCKS MUST BE OPENED MANUALLY. (SIDE NOTE: WINDOWS RATTLE DISTINCTLY WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING DOORS; WINDOWS AND DOORS HAVE ALWAYS FELT TOO LOOSE.) HEADLIGHTS AND TAIL-LIGHTS FAIL SOONER THAN NORMAL, INDICATING AN ELECTRONIC PROBLEM CAUSING SHORTS.THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN ONGOING FROM PURCHASE IN 2007 TO CURRENT 2016.
THE HEADLIGHTS LEAK I HAD TO REPLACE ONE ABOUT $450.00 BECAUSE IT HAD WATER IN IT . THE PASSENGER SIDE NOW HAS WATER IN IT I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE IT ALSO. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 25,000 MILES I WOULD THINK IN THIS DAY AND AGE YOU COULD MAKE A HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY THAT DOES NOT LEAK AND BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD. THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT IN DEC 2016
