I've had to replace the light bulb on my passenger side headlight constantly over the past couple of months. I heard that there was a recall on the wiring harness of the 2012 regular prius and I'm wondering if the issue has been looked at in the Prius C models.

The low beam head lights both fail while driving on the freeway at night. The road went to total darkness. I feel lucky the high beams were still working. I have taken the Prius C to the shop and have been told the headlight assembly on drivers and passengers have melted. The will have to be replaced.
