| Description of the problem | Car was just inspected sept 2014. Three light bulbs replaced. Prior to this, we have been replacing lightbulbs every few months. It is expensive because we cannot change the front lights ourselves.... It had to go into the shop. We actually now store bulbs in the glove box because the headlights burn out so often. Our mechanic said subaru has a problem with its wiring harness. Subaru needs to step up and address this as i see it is a common complaint here. |
