| Description of the problem | I have replaced my low beam headlights on this car 3 times since i purchased it and both low beam headlights go two weeks ago. So now it will be 5 times. I have had the car two years. Why am i replacing headlights so frequently. I had this problem with my car prior to this one, honda civic 2002. I alway had an extra bulb in the glove compartment so i would not get a ticket if stopped. I replaced it over 8 times from 2002 to 2015. I am wondering if the manufacturer is the same. I should not have to replace headlights so often. Plus, i cannot change myself on this car so i have to pay the dealer to replace. I cannot afford this in this economy. |
