Headlights failing or too dim by model year
What owners say
Headlight lens cover that becomes fogged on the inside is a very serious problem. The replacement cost is $175.00 each making very exspensive to mantain. The original should be glass,this would make it less dangerous for night driving. I went to a dealer about transmission, but they said there was no recall on that. Imformation I received from you it is supposed to be repaired at no cost???? Help !!!
While driving at freeway speeds, the transmission shifts into low gear in a sudden and unexpected manner. This causes the engine to reach a "red line" condition within a fraction of a second, and causes the car to reduce speed in a very short period of time. Since the break lights are not activated, this situation poses a serious safety hazzard, as the car behind may be unable to avoid a collision from the totally unexpected and un-signaled breaking action. This condition happened about 6 times within about a one hour period, while the headlights were on. The next day the transmission performed normally, while the headlights were off. The car has not been used at night time since this incident, and has not had the downshifting problem when run during the day time. There are no signs of an alternator failure, such as dim lights or a dead battery. The previous owner say that he replaced the transmission, but did not offer any further explaination as to why the transmission needed replacement.
Headlights lens cover discoloration/deterioration causing poor visibility at night. Dealer notified, and informed consumer that repairs would only be done at consumer's expense. *ak the consumer replaced the second set of head lights for the same problem.
Plastic headlight lens cover became cloudy causing poor visibility. Mjs
Headlights are working intermittently, and the dealer can't determine the cause of the problem.
Radio, while tuned to am stations, clicks when turn signals are activated. Headlights are effective only for a very short distance and have accumulated dirt inside of them. On cold mornings when the defroster is used before the interior of the car is sufficantly warmed up there is a clicking sound, like a short. Coming from the steering column.
Head lights were very poor, especially whe driving on the highway. The high and low beams wer equally poor. Manufacturer said they will open a file on this matter .
Headlight switch assembly replaced due to plastic part melting.
When the headlights throw shadows in the front and to the sides of the vehicle, worse when headlights are on low beams. Dealer replaced headlights under service bulletin which did not help at all.
The headlights don't have any range. Please describe .
Headlights inadequate for night driving, causing poor visibility.
