I have a 1995 ford contour. My headlight lenses are getting so cloudy I can hardly see when my headlights are on. I think this is a safty issue. Replacements cost $98.00 for each side. Is there any recourse or any recall on the lens. I believe this is a defective product.
The headlamp assembly is not performing. Significant haze on the lenses has reduced light output to dangerously low levels. Parts are integral to the automobile [not customer replaceable].
