| Description of the problem | The subaru outback 2011 has a known issue with headlights burning out frequently. I replace 7 headlights on my vehicle since i purchased the vehicle used in september 2017 costing me $200. The outback has an extended warranty for lightbulb replacement, but that ends in 2021, and causes the driver the inconvenience of frequently taking the vehicle in to have headlights replaced. A recall needs to be created to fix this issue. |
