Xenons in Extreme Cold?
Last night in Seattle, we had some snow and it was about 19F degree this morning.
My G37 and GF's ML was parked out side all night, and this morning, ML was warming up for about 15mins before we hit the road...
as soon as we turned right ,, the foglight warning sign came up on the computer screen... (cuz..foglight turns on when we turn right, or left.)
we stop the car on the side of the road and checked.
The bulb and the whole covered glass was blown up..
is it something could happend? this cold weather?

for some reason people think this car is totalled.... the reason it was written so easily off is because it was a lease and the car is only 1 year old.
the insurance company exagurated the repair estimate and just decided to not deal with it.
that auction has over 600 cars weekly that sell for really low prices... some are actually totalled and can be used as parts only. but there are many cars that are leased or belong to rental companies that have little damage on them that get written off because they dont want to be dealt with
really new cars even get written off if they're stolen( even when there is absolutly no damage on them)
