2011 Subaru OUTBACK Exterior Lighting Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1139916
Internal NHTSA #	10664184

Brand	SUBARU
Model	OUTBACK
Model Year	2011
File date	01/12/13
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	This is a low beam headlight issue. I have replaced close to 6-8 low beam headlights over a year and half. No one can find the answer and subaru doesn't deem it to be a safety issue, although i disagree. I have had my battery tested for power surges and this is not happening. I've seen countless other postings from 2011 subaru owners and nothing is being done. The low beams are blowing and the projection of the light is not adequate for night time driving. Something has to be done. I've also had a situation where both high beam lights blew out at the same time. That only happened once. The replacement costs are adding up because the low beam light is impossible to do without being put on a lift at the garage. Thank you.
