2018 Mitishichi Headlights, left, then right stop working. Dealer replaced first one within 6 months. So far I have replaced one or the other 4 or 5 Times. I did complain to NHTSA . These lights have been out more than they have worked. Google indicates a large number of these issues but no recall from NHTSA.
The contact owns a 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the passenger’s side headlight failed to operate. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the headlight was replaced; however, the failure recurred. The contact then stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the front driver’s side headlight failed to operate as needed. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the headlight needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 32,000.
I HAVE REPLACED THE LOWBEAM HEADLIGHTS 7 TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR. I DONT REALIZE THEY ARE OUT UNTIL SOMEONE OR THE POLICE TELL ME. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM.
HEAD LIGHTS BURNED OUT 3 TIMES IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR. HEADLIGHTS HAVE A LIFE EXPECTANCY OF MORE THAN 1 YEAR. NOT SURE IS STATIC BUILD UP AND SHOCK IS RELATED, BUT THAT IS ONGOING TOO.
