2009 Subaru Outback Lights Problems

THE HEADLIGHTS ON OUR OUTBACK BURN OUT FREQUENTLY. WE HAVE HAD MULTIPLE DIFFERENT HEADLIGHTS BURN OUT (AT LEAST 5) OVER THE YEARS THAT WE'VE HAD THE CAR. ON EACH OCCURANCE THE LIGHT BURNED OUT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED AND NOT WHILE DRIVING. ONE TIME BOTH HEADLIGHTS BURNED OUT SIMULTANEOUSLY WHEN STARTING THE CAR AND WE HAD TO DRIVE BACK HOME FROM OUT OF TOWN WITH OUR BRIGHTS ON THE ENTIRE TIME SO WE COULD SEE.

THIS IS THE 4TH HEADLAMP WE HAVE REPLACED WITHIN 12 MONTHS. WE HAVE TRIED PIAA'S, SILVER STAR'S...ALL HAVE THE SAME LIFE SPAN OF APPROX. 3-4 MONTHS...THIS HAS BECOME EXPENSIVE, A SAFETY HAZARD, AND A NUISANCE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 SUBARU OUTBACK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE HAD DIFFICULTY SEEING THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON. THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE BRIGHTLY ENOUGH TO PROVIDE PROPER VISIBILITY OF THE ROADWAY. AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.
