Headlights problems of the 2008 Honda FIT

Driver side headlight no longer works in low beam mode. Headlight was changed, light works in high beam mode.

All front lamps have failed repeatedly, including low beam headlight. Headlamps have failed four times. Vehicle has been returned for service under safety recall notice, but lights continue to fail.

The low beam headlights on my 2008 Honda Fit suddenly stopped working. Upon starting the car, the low beam headlights do not turn on though the high beams remain intact. This means that I have no headlights unless I drive with my high beams, which is distracting to other drivers and unsafe. I have not yet brought the car to the dealer to be fixed as this problem began very recently.

The contact owns a 2008 Honda Fit. The Honda Fit sport is designed so that the instrument panel illuminates to full brightness as soon as the ignition is turned on--day or night. It cannot be turned off at all. (the dealer and manufacturer confirm this. ) the problem is that I, like, I suspect, most drivers, rely on a dark car interior as a prompt to turn on the headlights at night. This week I have driven home from work three out of five nights with no headlights. (on one occasion I was prompted by a kind approaching driver who "blinked" me; on another I actually remembered to turn the lights on. The degree of illumination, incidentally, can be controlled when the headlights are on. The too-bright dashboard is a mild annoyance during the daytime, but that in itself would not merit a complaint. The major issue is this: I chose this car largely because of its excellent safety rating--and I now feel very unsafe when I arrive home and discover that I have just driving six miles on chicago streets with no headlights. The contact purchased the vehicle in January of 2008 and has only been driving the vehicle during the day. The failure mileage was 8,000.
