Description of the problem | Passenger side headlight turned off, after replacing bulb, it still comes off and on. After taking it to the vw dealership they said i'll need a new headlight and control unit module. This exact part was recalled for the same issue for my make and model but they are stating my vin # is not eligible. They need to expand their research as i've noted over 97 other owners having the same issue but are not under this recall. |
