Both headlights keep blowing out. At approx. 17,000 miles the drivers side headlight burned out. Replaced with standard bulb. At approx. 22,000 miles, the passenger side headlight blew out. Replaced both lowbeam headlights at that time with sylvania H7 cb cool blue replacements as per local dealer recommendation. Now three months later at approx. 27,000 miles, the driverside headlight has burned out again. These were all put in by a mechanic and the bulb was never touched.
