A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING A CERTIFIED 2010 ACADIA THE PASSENGER LOW BEAM WOULD WORK INTERMITTENT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST ME OVER $1000 FOR THEM TO FIX IT EVEN THOUGH IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I FEW MONTHS LATER THE PASSENGER SIDE LOW BEAM STARTED TO DO THE SAME. I AGAIN TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT THERE PROBLEM AND WOULD FIX IT IF I PAID FOR THE FIX.
