Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | Replaced, again, the passenger side headlight bulb. I just replaced the driver side three weeks ago, again. This is getting to be too expensive as the bulbs cost $14 each. Not to mention that i may get stopped by the police and cited for not having a working light. There must be something defective with the headlight unit because i have changed the bulb too many times. *jb |
