“Our van also experienced melted headlight sockets failure due to a weak soldering from the wire to the socket. Unbelievable that this is not a recall. The dealer's parts department person told me when I ordered the replacement sockets that they sell lots of these sockets. We had intermittent lighting problem on one side, then the other, then total failure of bopth headlights. Please report your experience. This must become a recall. …”
