Hey, it's Cayenne. Did you know that a burned-out headlight can cause your rearview mirror to reflect flashing lights? In other words, you might get pulled over by the police for only having one working headlight, because in most places it's against the law. So you now that you see the light, we are going to bark about headlamp replacement. Let's light it up!!!
Not only is it illegal to drive with one headlight burned out, but it's also dangerous. You can't see down the road nearly as well at night with only one headlight, and other drivers can't see you as easily either.
The good news is that many newer vehicles warn you when one of your headlamps burns out. When that happens, have it taken care of as soon as you can. While there was a time when all headlamps were pretty much the same, that's no longer true. Halogen, Xenon, LED, and other technologies are used in modern vehicles. Plus, there are sealed beams (like those on older vehicles) and capsules.
If you have a burned-out headlamp, ask your service advisor for recommendations. Usually, when one side goes, the other isn’t far behind. Many suggest replacing both headlamps at the same time. Your vehicle's owner's manual can tell you what the manufacturer recommends. You also can ask your service advisor about upgrading to a headlight that might give you better visibility.
In order to make sure you're able to see down the road the way your vehicle was designed and not blind oncoming drivers, it's vital that new headlights be aimed properly. That's another good reason to have this service performed by a technician. Now, that's a really bright idea.
Here is my quote for the week, regarding, of course, light.
