Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have noticed in the past year or so that the headlight brightness is affected by the yellowing of the plastic headlamp covers. replacing the bulb will not improve brightness. i believe the cause of this is lack of ultraviolet stabilizers in the plastic at the time of manufacturing. the way to fix this is to replace them with new headlamp covers. i do not believe that i should pay for these since it a defect in my opinion. the new model headlamp covers appears to be manufactured from a polycarbonate material which is of a higher quality.*ak
