Newest first, as filed with NHTSA by owners.
The head lights on my car are growing mold inside. I have seen this on many cars like mine and it keeps growing until the entire lens is covered and it cuts the effective light output to about half. The hydrolic suspension system is broken and my car has about 10000 miles on it and also many of these cars are having this problem.
