Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The plastic used in the headlight lens covers becomes brown with exposure to the sun. this is a dangerous problem and the only remedy that i have found is to purchase new headlight assemblies for about $200 each. this is unacceptable since the problem is due to the improper selection by the auto manufacturer of the correct polymer used to create the lenses. *jb |
