It gives them something else to fix and make money on when it breaks. Traditional headlight bulbs are like $10-20 and easy to replace, but newer LED headlight harnesses and their replacement can be hundreds.

    LEDs have so many superior properties and don’t burn out nearly as often though. I have a car with automatic matrix high beams and it’s a godsend for night driving. I would give credit where it’s due.
