Headlight problem
Is anyone else having a problem with their headlights going out? I've had my car for about 1 1/2 years, and ive had to replace the headlight bulbs about 4 times already. i have a 2004 if that makes any difference.
Any advice will be great.
thanx

RE: Headlight problem
No, can't say i've heard of anyone having that problem....
Sounds like you may have a bad ground somewhere. Do your lights dimm somewhat when you come to a stop? Try honking the horn at night with you lights on and see if they dimm.
It might also be a bad alternator voltage regulator. You'll have to take it to the shop to check that out if you don't have a multi meter.
Hope this helps...

I took it to the dealer, and they said the the connector was bad on one, so they replaced it, but now the other one is burning out the bulbs.
Thanks for the advice Racer

They need to check the electrical system, not the bulb....
