Outback 2.5I 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 115,000 miles

This car has burned out 5 HEADLIGHTS SINCE MARCH OF 2011 WHEN WE BOUGHT IT! Just last week, we had one low beam headlight out and it had been out for about a week. My mom had to drive 45 minutes home with NO headlights in an ICE STORM with only fog lights, and high beams when no one was coming. THAT'S DANGEROUS!
