Description of the problem | Driving down the highway when i realized both of my headlights were out. It was light when i left my house so i didn't notice, i had to drive without headlights. Just a little strange that all of a sudden both headlights go out at the exact same time. So i called to ask to bring my car in and the girl told me there are no recalls for this. I see recall 97z9 for exterior lighting. She tells me i'll have to pay to fix it and if there is a recall in the future i can get a refund. Great customer service. |
