| Description of the problem | Both headlights going out at the same time. This has happened about ten times over the last four years and now i have no headlights. I have tried three different headlights in the last month, the first two worked briefly and the last one from subaru did not work at all. From 2005 - 20011 subaru has recalled other models for the same problem but as i was told, "the impreza is the cheap car" |
