Is Changan using low-quality bulbs in the Karvaan that are not suitable for Pakistani road conditions?

Some owners claim that the factory-fitted bulbs don’t last more than a few months. Are these bulbs not designed to handle heat, dust, and voltage fluctuations in Pakistan?

Yes, many users believe the factory-fitted bulbs are substandard. Common issues include:

Low resistance to heat and dust

Weak filaments that snap with vibration

Shorter lifespan compared to bulbs used in other vans e.g., Toyota Hiace

These bulbs are likely basic-grade imports, not specifically engineered for rugged conditions in Pakistan.
