Was Vehicle Towed: -	Description of the Complaints: Headlight is burned out. to replace it you have to take the fender off of the vehicle. a coworker of mine also has a new beetle and his headlight burnt out within a year. also driving around you constantly see new beetles with burned out headlights. i think this must be a manufactuerer defect that needs to be addressed. i have to note the dealership will repair it for free since the car is less than a year old, however i don't believe the headlights should burn out this frequently.*ak
