Hi Matt,

I just heard from a friend who has a 2007 -- the HID headlights became very intermittent (one or the other or both would just shut off!) and even though it is a "known" problem, it is not a recall. The bulbs are $150 EACH and they are (apparently) hard to replace because the front bumper cover has to come off? So, the dealer charged them $100 EACH to install the new bulbs -- even though it was strenuously pointed out to them that once the bumper was off for one, the second once can't be also $100 labor...

Have you heard of this issue?
