2013 Volkswagen JETTA Exterior Lighting Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1357357
Internal NHTSA #	10955528
Manufacurer	Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Brand	VOLKSWAGEN
Model	JETTA
Model Year	2013
File date	17/02/17
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	In the past year, the headlights (not daytime running lights) have gone out intermittently on two or three occasions, one while driving and the others while starting the vehicle. So far it's just been one at a time, but it made it reasonably harder to see while driving. If both go out together, this could be bad! The vw dealer found a burnt out bulb but cannot determine any other reason after troubleshooting. They said the bulb filaments are very close and going over a bump could short it. That's bad design with safety risk involved. Also, many other jetta owners complain online about the same problem.

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
