Description of the problem	Two years ago both bright headlights failed. Dealer replaced bulbs at my expense. On 3/12/2012 both bulbs on the drivers side failed. Dealer said the vehicle had defective headlight assembly that toyota knew about that had to be replaced ($1265. 30) at my expense because vehicle had over 50000 miles (car now has 85000 miles). I called toyota and they confirmed that this was true. My question to toyota was, if i was driving on a busy highway at night and both defective assemblies failed wouldn't my safety be in jeopardy and if so why wasn't this car recalled?
