Headlights problem #1

Since all new vehicles and prior were standardizing plastic headlights why is it that the clouding/hazy headlight is not a safety recall issue or a replacement issue? you can use the restoration kits but after so many applications it will not work anymore. My vehicle has started with the clouding/hazing and I have been using kits but the symptom still comes back. Will this be addressed?.

Tail Light Switch problem #2

The headlight harness plug burned up I had to replace it headlights burn out with in months as do tail lights I have replaced both bulbs three times in the last six months. And replaced tail light bulbs twice in six months.
