Description of the problem	My low beam headlight hit a keep burning out prematurely. I bought the vehicle with 47000 miles, and it now has 106000. In not quite 60k miles i have replaced the low beam headlights 7 times. When replacing i have followed the owners manual procedure each time. A quick internet search of various online forums reveals that i am far from the only person experiencing this problem. When i brought the issue up to the service department at my dealer, they refused to acknowledge that there is any issue, and that replacing the lights this many times is just normal wear and tear. I have had multiple occasions where both low beams burned out simultaneously, making it necessary to use high beams just to get to a store and buy replacements. This is a very unsafe condition.
