I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS AGO AND I HAD TO CHANGE THE FRONT HEADLIGHT ABOUT ONE YEAR LATER. I COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO CHANGE A SIMPLE PART SO I RESEARCHED ONLINE AND WAS ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY CHANGE THE BULB. THE BULB LASTED A FEW MONTHS AND THEN BLEW OUT AGAIN. I THOUGHT THAT I HAD A FAULTY $25-30 BULB SO I BOUGHT ANOTHER. I HAD TO RE-RESEARCH HOW TO CHANGE THE BULB AND THIS TIME I FOUND OUT THAT OTHER SATURN OUTLOOK OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I CHANGED THE BULB AND IT BURNED OUT AFTER ABOUT TWO WEEKS. I COULD THEN SEE THAT THE WIRE HARNESS THAT PLUGS INTO THE BULB WAS MELTED. I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS IS NOT GOOD AND HAS THE POTENTIAL TO START A FIRE. PLEASE DO SOMETHING. *TR
