Description of the problem | My daytime running light bulbs are beginning to melt the lenses. The drl are a safety item and toyota has not issued a recall for this. I feel as the truck ages the drl will continue to melt and will not be as visible to other drivers. Also if the headlamp assemblies build up enough heat it could pose a fire risk. |
