Suzuki has hit all the right notes with the new Grand Vitara. Launched earlier this year, the new Vitara has a host of incredible features as standard, with the most intriguing model derivative having the new hybrid drivetrain.

One of the standard features of the entire new Suzuki Grand Vitara lineup, is a set of crystal clear LED headlights; this is what you need to do if one or both are not working anymore.

LED headlights on the new Grand Vitara

LED headlight bulbs have a lifespan exceeding 15 000 hours of operation and should never need to be replaced during the lifespan of the vehicle. If the bulbs do, however, stop working, it is best to take the car to an official Suzuki dealer or workshop to have the problem addressed, as the problem may run deeper than a simple fused LED unit. Accessing the LED headlight units is not difficult but this task should be left to a professional technician at an approved workshop.
