| Description of the problem | Without warning, both of the low beam headlights blew out within moments of each other. Replacements don't last more than 3-6 months after being replaced. Dealership will not address issue without charging exorbitant service fees. Researched online and discovered that this is not an isolated incident. Request your assistance in having subaru address the underlying fault(s) leading to these potentially hazardous events. Thank you |
