What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2003 honda crv. The contact was driving approximately 50 MPH with the headlights activated when the headlights failed. The vehicle was driven to the side of the road where the contact inspected under the hood and noticed both headlight connectors were melted. The high beam headlights were engaged and the contact was able to resume driving. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated both headlight connectors would need to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired.
Both low beam headlights stopped working at the same time. Took car to dealer, they replaced wire plug at head light switch and replaced head light switch. They said plastic part had melted. Updated 05/02/11 updated ivoq 05/04/11
