I HAVE HAD THE RIGHT FRONT HEADLIGHT REPLACED ON MY 2002 CHEVROLET TRAILBLAZER ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS BECAUSE THE BULB BURNED OUT. IT RECENTLY BURNED OUT AGAIN AND I WENT TO HAVE THE BULB REPLACED AGAIN ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THE ENTIRE SOCKET HAD BURNED OUT AND HAD TO BE REPLACED . I QUESTIONED THE TECHNICIAN ABOUT THIS BUT HE HAD NO CONCRETE ANSWER AS TO WHY THE SOCKET WOULD BURN OUT. HE SPECULATED THAT PERHAPS THE BULB (WHICH THEY HAD REPLACED TWICE) HAD NOT BEEN PUT IN SECURELY OR IT HAD BEEN LOOSENED DURING NORMAL DRIVING. I AM UPSET BECAUSE THIS BURNED OUT SOCKET ENDING UP COSTING $65.00 TO REPLACE. HAD THEY DONE THIS DURING ONE OF THE OTHER INSTANCES, MY WARRANTY WOULD HAVE COVERED THIS. I THINK THIS PROBLEM IS A DEFECT BECAUSE I HAVE ENCOUNTERED MANY TRAILBLAZERS ON THE STREET WITH ONE OF THE HEADLIGHTS NOT OPERATING. *AK
