AT APPROXIMATELY 38,000 MILES ON OUR ACADIA, THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT APPEARED TO FAIL. UPON RECONNECTING THE HEADLIGHT, I FOUND IT WOULD WORK INTERMITTENTLY. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, I FOUND THE WIRING CONNECTOR TO THE LOW BEAM BULB TO BE MELTED AND CRACKED. THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AS I AM A MEMBER OF AN ONLINE COMMUNITY AT WWW.ACADIAFORUM.NET. MANY OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THIS SAME ISSUE AND IT IS ALSO A COMMON ISSUE WITH SISTER VEHICLE SATURN OUTLOOK. AS THESE BULBS CAN FAIL AT ANY TIME I THINK IT WOULD BE IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE CONSUMER TO HAVE THESE WIRING HARNESSES REPLACED EITHER IN A RECALL, OR A TSB. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THE BULBS FAILED AT NIGHT WHILE NEGOTIATING A CURVE? REPLACING THE HARNESS IS A HUGE EXPENSE TO THE OWNER IF THEIR VEHICLE IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS A SUBSTANDARD PART AND A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. PLEASE HELP. *TR

AIR BAGS
WITHOUT PROBATION, AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON EITHER UNTIL I TURN CAR OFF OR IF CAR SITS OVERNIGHT. I DO BELIEVE THE AIRBAG CAN DEPLOY WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON IF WE WERE INVOLVED IN A CRASH. *TR
