At Mike Kelly Mitsubishi, we know your vehicle is a crucial part of your daily life, and you rely on it to get you where you need to go safely. The headlights of your Mitsubishi play a vital role in ensuring that safe driving experience, so recognizing when you need new headlights from your Mitsubishi dealer is an important part of car ownership.
If you find yourself replacing the headlight bulbs in your Mitsubishi more frequently than expected, it could indicate deeper issues within the headlight assembly or the electrical system of the vehicle. Consistent bulb failures can be frustrating at best; at worst, they may suggest a need for a thorough inspection and potentially a complete headlight replacement.
The most noticeable sign that your Mitsubishi may need new headlights is dimness. Dim headlights reduce your ability to see the road ahead and can be particularly dangerous during poor weather conditions. This gradual dimming is a typical sign that the bulbs are reaching the end of their lifespan and need replacement.
Physical damage to the headlight assembly, such as cracks, dents, or broken seals, can keep your headlights from functioning as they should. This type of damage can allow moisture to get in, too, and that can lead to bulb damage or internal corrosion. Address any physical damage promptly.
Exposure to sunlight and various environmental factors can cause the headlight lenses of your Mitsubishi to become yellowed or clouded over time. This discoloration affects the aesthetic appeal of your vehicle for sure, but it also significantly diminishes the light output, compromising your safety. When the lenses lose their clarity, come see us to get them cleaned (if possible) or replaced.
Are you finding it harder to see at night? This decrease in visibility can make driving at night more hazardous, and it might not be your eyesight that’s the issue. It’s imperative to ensure your headlights provide adequate illumination for safe driving.
Properly functioning headlights should provide a consistent and evenly distributed light beam. If you notice that the headlights are no longer aligned correctly or the beam pattern appears uneven, get them checked. The wrong beam pattern keeps you from seeing as well as the manufacturer intended, and it can also blind other drivers.
If you’re experiencing any of these signs, come see us at Mike Kelly Mitsubishi right away to have your headlights replaced. We’ll have you in and out in a flash, and our award-winning service will impress you like it has throughout our community for the last 60 years!
