Description of the problem | My headlights keep burning out. I replaced them 4 times in the last two months! There is nothing wrong with the bulb harnesses. There was a point where both headlights burned out at the same time and i had no lights! I did research on this matter to find many jetta owners are having the same issue these bulbs are not cheap to keep replacing them every couple of months, and the safety issue has to be considered here. I was parked thank god o noticed no lights before o drove. If where i lived was lit up i never would have noticed both my bulbs were burnt out! |
