| Description of the problem | Frequent headlight burnout (have had to replace headlight bulbs 4 times in the last year) review of data online indicates that subaru recognized this as a problem and was offering reimbursement for these costs to consumers. Deadline was 2016. Class action suits have also been filed. Please help! This is ridiculous to continually need to replace bulbs so frequently and expensive since they are not easy to do on my own |
