Recall Fix on Adaptive Headlight

[Berardi3]

Hello all I had my Recall work done the adaptive headlight works as it should what do you think about the longevity of this update do you think they fixed it correctly ?

My headlight was replaced early on, prior to the recall notice, which was almost a year ago; I took a closer look at it earlier today and it looks 100% without any visible issues of failing..

This post probably just jinxed me..

What did they do? Did they replace the entire light housing or something else?

They're swapping in a new (but same) headlight unit, and adding rubber bushings to mounting points to damp vibrations. Will it be a fix? Only time will tell.

At one service, I complained that my headlight was loose. The dealer stuck a mismatched pair of rubber grommets behind the lower headlamp mounting bracket. The lower hole (circled) is where the front fairing mounting pin passes. In the other picture, you can see that I put in a more suitable grommet there. The fairing mounting ping goes through the lower headlamp hole and the grommet. I have no idea what, if anything, is supposed to go there. The dealer's parts manual didn't show anything. I wonder if these are the "bushings" they are installing.

That's my thought
