Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Hid xenon headlights randomly flicker and shut off during driving. It's getting worse. Dealers never found problem which recurs continually so they never fixed this issue under warranty after being asked several times since the vehicle was new. 100's of other stories about this online. Huge safety issue when headlights just quit at random.”
