      Milky Headlights

      Believe it or not, but after only 2 years I had to go and have both my headlights replaced. Yup, the damn things started to go milky on me. So I went into the dealer and showed them and they said yup, there no good. Got them put yesterday and they look good again, but they wouldn't let me have the old ones. They said it may have been the clearer or wax I was using, but that's bull. I use the same stuff on my wifes car and her's look like new. Oh well, at least they replaced them at there cost.
      Any one elts have an issue with there's?

      2 years seems short. However, I think replacing the headlights is going off the deep end a bit. A simple polish job will work fine:

      You know, if the was 5 or 6 years I would have buffed it out myself, but not on a 2 year old car. I feel that the parts should last longer then that. Even GM agreed to that.

      i agree with you too, let gm fix it if they were willing under warranty, if not, get out the polish.

      Haha, I always forget about warranty work... I've never had a car that was new enough to have a warranty. If I did, I'd definitely use it.

      At two years sounds like a factory defect. Glad GM replaced them for you. They keep the old parts on warranty work so that you aren't making money off them by some devious means.
