Faulty low beam head light, both side were blow out or melting, one of the events was while I was driving at night. In first time, I call the service dealer and they said it was due to the use and time of the light on the vehicle. Because it was the first time I accepted their explanation. But, again at June they blow out or damage again, this time at night. I went to the service dealer and again they said the same reason that they gave me when I call. Again I accept, but they didn't change it. Again one week ago they blow out, then I decide to do this complaint. Everytime I change the lights I changes for the ones the manual said. Since the second event I saw some vehicles like mine with the same problem, the low headlight were blowout.

We bought a Suzuki Grand vitara from the car company, here in warsaw Indiana, the low beam head lights are a hazard to driving at night, we have had the car back to the dealers twice to have this problem corrected. The dealer tried to correct this problem but he could not, so I am making this complaint, hopping that Suzuki will be informed of this problem, we have been informed by the dealer that we are not the only people who have complained about these low beam headlights.
