Led adaptive headlights of the Porsche macan S. S. Has malfunctioned spontaneously. Cost to replace the headlights is $5,400. This is an $80,000 car. Asked Porsche North America to look into this. There are multiple comments on online of people complaining about LED headlights on the passenger side. Spontaneously going out and having to spend this much money to replace…
I noticed that my passenger side headlight was out but no warning was given in the dashboard. If I hadn’t noticed that the ‘round the corner’ lights were not working it might have taken me a while to figure it out presenting a safety issue
Passenger low beam headlight does not work. There is no “fault” message under “exterior lighting” indicating a problem with headlight.
