Bought new at dealer; headlights have burned out 8 times (both sides) While this is not covered by warranty, no one has been able to explain why this happens or comes up with a possible solution. I have been buying standard replacement bulbs (9005) and replacing them myself, but it's not easy for me. Dealer wants to charge $45 an hour (AND THEY CHARGE FOR THE FULL HOUR) to do a 5 minute replacement. I now prepare by buying 2 or 4 bulbs at once. Every 3-4 months, first the drivers side goes out, then 2-3 weeks later, the passenger side goes out. Not good.
