Headlight lenses cloudy and crazing. Dealer refused to replace under warranty. District manager refused to replace under warranty. Later directed dealer to polish lenses. Made them worse. Later offered 50-50 cost share. A. My cost would be in excess of $500. 00 and b. Car is still under warranty and is apparently a manufacture defect. Numerous other owners have had their lights replaced by dealers, appears to be no hard and fast rule. District manager is trying bullying tactics. He has never seen the car, even though I tried on several occasions to meet with him. He is unapproachable and incommunicado to anyone outside of the dealer. I have photos. I gave a photo to service manager to attempt to get this resolved. District manager has not replied.
The "clear" cover over the projection headlights assembly and yellow signal light has become severely clouded/faded particularly on the upper half of the cover. The signal light is becoming obscured behind the cloudiness. The car has very little mileage and the defect is not the result of road debris damage (rocks/sand). No repair was made because the dealer blames the manufacturer for denying claim, and the manufacturer says it is up to the dealer to perform the work and place a claim. I believe it to be a defective product because I have compared the lens on my car to other vehicles of the same make and model (some of which were older and had much more mileage) and yet are in better condition than the one on my car.
: the contact stated while driving at night up hills or around curves, the headlights do not shine on the road. The vehicle was taken to the dealership for inspection. They determined it was a design of the vehicle. Although the manufacturer was alerted, no repairs were made.
