Low Beam "Warranty Issue"

[cbob]

Just had a driver's side low beam headlight go out at 57k km. Needed a quick replacement, as I wil have to negotiate the infamous "C2 sky" this weekend so stopped in at my local dealer.
Not only did they quickly replace the lamp while I waited, but they did it for free because it was a "warranty issue".
I'm happy with that, but didn't know that headlights were covered under the warranty. :cool:

One should check before going out and buying the lamp and doing the work themselves.

I'm sure it is not covered by warranty. You have a good local dealer, who likes happy customers.

All the light bulbs are covered under warrenty.

Under certain warranty packages they are. I have even had the indicator side lights replaced under warranty, as they keep on being broken in the car wash, and at 40 pounds a shot I am glad I don't have to pay for them to often.

i too replaced a burnt low at 50K too find out from the dealer that it would have been a warranty item,

but on that note i replaced them with PIAA's which are noticeably brighter in no light areas.

i just realized i've had this rig 2 years this weekend. Maybe i'll have a birthday party.

All of our bulbs were also covered by the new car warranty. In fact, just prior to our warranty expiring, the dealer was good enough to stick a couple of spare H7's in the glove box. :)
