What owners wrote
Passenger headlamp went out. On my 2009 saturn outlook. Took the vehicle to the GM dealership for repair and found there was a fire in the wiring harness that controls the headlamps.
Left headlight not working. Purchased replacement bulb but when old bulb was removed from harness I discovered that the harness connector is melted at the bulb to harness junction.
