Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“From the time frame of 2017 til the present, the headlamps on the vehicle would burn out for no apparent reason. Each time I replace them, they would last for about 4 to 6 months and then they would burn out again. Sometimes either one would burn, left or right, and twice I've had both go out at the same time. I don't understand what is causing the head lamps to burn out. I've replaced them each time, and in counting I have replaced them at least 10 times since 2017. This is totally unusual compared to my other two cars where I've never once had to replace the headlamps on these. …”
