Love this car!!! I've owned it just under 3 years and 55,000 miles and I still get excited driving it.
True to all things mechanical, though, there is one squawk I'd love to fix. This car goes through headlights like no tomorrow. I had to replace both low beams within a month after purchase. The terminals were a little corroded, so I dismissed it as poor maintenance on the new car lot, replace all 4 lights and went on. I've found that I have to replace each headlight on average once a year. It's irritating and getting a little expensive! I've learned I get a little more longevity if I apply silicon dialetric compound to the terminals when I install the new lights, but I really think I should get better than 12 months between burnouts. Anyone else having this problem??:dunno: If so..how did you solve it?
