Description of the problem	A little less than a year ago my driver side inner parking light bulb failed, and about a week later the passenger side inner parking light bulb failed as well. When i went to replace them, the bulb and headlight assembly showed visible damage from where it appeared as if both bulbs caught on fire and melted into the headlight assembly, permanently damaging both driver and passenger headlight assemblies. There was the presence of charring on the bulb socket as well. I took the vehicle to the local mercedes benz dealership and they stated there was nothing they could do except to replace both headlight assemblies. If it were merely one bulb that failed in this manner, i would have chalked it up to maybe a faulty bulb or socket, but it is very odd that it occurred on both inner parking light assembly.
