| Description of the problem | My headlight bulbs burn-out after only 4-6 weeks. This has been happening for about 3 years. The short-bulb-life event occurs about 70% on the driver side, and about 30% on the passenger side. There is no sign of moisture entering the bulb/light area. This is a constant safety issue for me since the problem means i am often driving with only one headlight. This problem is also very expensive-- approximately 12-15 new bulbs per year ! The bulbs burn out when driving on roads of all types. On this form below, where "when did this happen?" is requested, i have entered the date of the most recent occurrence (bulb burned out after only 5 weeks of life) although as stated above,this event has been happening regularly for the past 3 years. |
