THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS ARE XENON BULBS, AND COST OVER $700 EACH TO REPLACE. I BELIEVE HEADLAMPS ARE A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE REASONABLY PRICED. MERCEDES ARE OVER $1200 EACH, AND BMW OVER $800. I'M AN AUTO MECHANIC AND SEE QUITE A FEW FAILURES, AND EACH TIME THE CUSTOMER DENIES THE WORK AND DRIVES ON 1 HEADLAMP, OR LEAVES THE HIGH BEAMS ON.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: DURING A CRASH, THE CONSOLE COVER COULD OPEN AND THE COVER OR ITEMS STORED UNDER IT COULD INJURY AN OCCUPANT.

Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE CONSOLE LATCH MECHANISM.
