Description of the problem | Owner of 2008 toyota avalon. Two weeks ago the left high beam headlight went out (shattered), had that replaced and this week both high beams went out at the same time. Both high beam lights were shattered within the housing area. Went to local dealership and advised of the $2,000 plus cost since vehicle if out of warranty with 76,000 miles. Luckily, we have not had the total light failure situation. This is a severe safety concern and should be corrected at toyota expense. |
