I've been on many forums and this is a consistent problem with all Atlas owners of the 2018 model. The headlamps are one piece and the low beam bulb cannot be replaced. The whole assembly must be purchased and VW charges $1000 for each headlamp. This is absolutely ridiculous. VW should #1 not charge a small mortgage to have a headlight replaced. VW is a mid level brand, not Porsche or BMW. To charge people this much for a part that has to be purchase all together is extortion.
