Headlights problems of the 2007 Suzuki Grand Vitara

I bought my 07 Suzuki Grand Vitara in 2008. Since I have owned this vehicle I have had to replace the low beam headlights about every 3-4 months. The lights even after being replaced will flicker and turn off. I have to open the hood and wiggle the light to come back on. The connectors on the headlights have become overheated and mealted. Once while driving I smelled smoke, after opening the hood I realized it was the headlight. I have been pulled over several times because my headlight(s) have turned off while driving. I have had to drive multiple times with the high beams. Also the low beam headlights are so dim I can barely see a yard infront of my vehicle while driving. These are all serious safety hazards and even life threatening if the headlights were to catch fire.

The headlights burn out about every 4 months. This is a very expensive problem.

I have two issues, and have had these issues since buying the car about 3 years ago,when running the car cold the breaks do not depress the first time I break, it takes alot of force to get the car to stop, if it is warmed up for 15 min or so it will not have the issue, but figures it should be addressed. My other issue is the headlights, they burn out constantly, I change then ever 2 or so months alternating between drivers side and passanger side.

The low beam headlights in our Suzuki Grand Vitara went out completely. I have had problems before with a single bulb burning out which I replaced. They are burning out much more rapidly now and becoming a constant problem of having to replace the low beam headlights. Now, both low beam headlights stopped working the other day as we were driving back at night which forced me to use my high beam headlights to get home safely. I have researched online and have seen that this is a common problem many Suzuki owners are having but Suzuki is refusing to acknowledge it and put out a recall on the issue.

My headlight has blown out 3 times within 6 months. I have replaced them but now I tried to replace my headlight and it won't work, my headlight doesn't even come on. I am thinking its the wiring and I looked online and I seen that multiple people have had this same problem. It is crazy because I shouldn't have to replace my headlight that many times in a year. I contacted Suzuki and they said they can't help me without making me pay the amount, I shouldn't have to pay for this parts and labor when they are aware of this problem because they said they have heard that before.

I have been having issues with my low beam headlight not working. I have had to replaced the light bulbs every 3-4 months for the past year. The first couple of times I was told the person installing the light bulbs were not doing it properly and that was the issue. Recently, I have been advised that the adapter is the issue and because it has the electric wires connected to it I have to pay for electrical work. To save money I thought I could buy the part myself but, after going to 4 different auto stores who did not have the part I was forced to come online. This is when I discovered that I'm not the only one with this issue. I think Suzuki should place a recall on this issue.

I see that you have recalls on some vehicles for the daytime headlights over heating. It is also happening on the 07 Suzuki Grand Vitara. I have to replace my headlights at least once a year from the over heating issue and it also has a rubber burning smell. If my vehicle is recalled how do I go about getting it fixed if I havent even got called for even the past recalls on my vehicle like the airbag reccall. . . Please inform me on how to do so.

The head lights keep going off every 4 to 6 months. There's been numerous complaints from other owners on repairpal. Com about the same thing and Suzuki has not wanted to recognize that there is a problem. This is partially what they have posted "we understand the concerns you have raised in your message and we want to inform you that there is no known issues with the headlight assembly". Yet everyone's complaints about the headlights going off every 4 to 6 months is a fact. I tried replacing the entire head light assembly before I knew there is actually a problem with it and it's still doing it months later. It's getting very expensive for everyone and myself to be replacing headlight bulbs every couple of months that should be lasting years.

Low beam headlight bulbs (h7) fail every other month. I've spent about 150-200 us dollars every year on headlight bulbs since I bought the car new in 2007. Wiring harness for h7 bulb show signs of excessive heat (melting and burn marks) on plastic and metal parts. I've always used nitrile gloves, paper towels, and bulb grease (di-electric) to install bulbs and wiring harness. Despite all the precautions working with these bulbs they always fail within 3 or 4 months. The concern is safety and preventing an accident due to defective parts.
