2016 Mazda CX-5

THE PASSENGER SIDE LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT BECAME DIM AND FLICKERING AT ABOUT 36600 MILEAGE. AT THE TIME OF THE MALFUNCTION THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN DURING THE DAY ON A CITY STREET. THE ENCLOSED PICTURE SHOWS THE VEHICLE IN AN UNLIGHTED GARAGE. THIS CREATES A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS SAME PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED MANY TIMES ON ONLINE FORUMS.

SINCE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY REPLACEMENT IS ESTIMATED TO BE OVER $1100 FOR JUST ONE SIDE.

THE LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS FLICKER AND GO OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO BOTH SIDES OF MY HEADLIGHTS AT 50K AND 55K MILES. THE FIX FOR THIS IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AT OF COST OF $1,400 -$2,000 PER LIGHT! THIS POSES A SAFETY RISK IF THE VEHICLE IS NOT PROPERLY ILLUMINATED. A RECALL IS DESPERATELY NEEDED FOR THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT, OR WORSE KILLED, BY THESE FAULTY PARTS.
