Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Headlights will intermittently malfunction while driving. Sometimes one headlight will go out, sometimes both will go out. The dealer is telling me that the headlight assembly needs to be replaced for both lights. Many other owners with the hid headlight option are experiencing the same issue. Randomly losing headlights is definitely dangerous!”
