Wireless Headphones

Just bought an Outlander 2007 XLS.  the plastic wireless headphones lasted about 2 hours then split. It doesn't look like the dealer thinks its a warranty issue.
 
Anyone else with a simlar problem?
 
Are there any other brands that might be compatible?

HeyHey! I just bought an Outlander too....Did you break the headphones, if was it broken when bought? Stupid of me didn't check mine then I pick it up 2 days ago. My outlander was a Dealer's Demo, and headphone was broken when I try to use it another day, it was split. I call the dealer, they said it will not cover by the warrety.

My son put them on and they split right where the thin part becomes thick again.  Obviously if they are lasting less than a week there is an issue.   I mean  its meant to be used by kids right?  Our's seemed ok when we got them.  But they have not been abused in any way.     labas@lockspace.com

Ya, I know what u mean, the part where you can adjust right?? But the sad part for me is that I didn't break them, and still they wont give me a new one....Grrrrrrrr

Absolutely warranty.  No question.  Take it back in or to another dealer.  Be sure to take it to service, not back to your salesman.  The could give a **** less.

If you want to replace or add a set of  headphones--the Clarion IR700 model works--they were only $40 CAD--at an audio shop..so U.S.  owners should be able to find for less...

I call the dealer. No Warranty or replacement. AND I didn't break mine too, it was broken when I got my Outie. Call them, said Nope, warranty not cover!

Do you have a URL that shows the headphones? Which audio shop you found them in??

You could also check one from Ebay, bought a couple of IR Headphones for around AU$70.00 and it works well with the rear entertainment unit. My kids used it often than the supplied headphone since it's more comforatble and has bigger ear muffs. Also, if it got broke not much headache since it's quite cheap. So far the 2 units I bought is still working perfectly eventhough the kids has used it a lot.

Do you have this unit? It is just buy, and use??

That's a failure of the part.  They should not break that easily.  Take itto a different dealer, or ask to speak to the district manager.

Yup bought the same thing and still using it. Just add battery and that's it, no need to adjust anything. 

Thanks for the alternative.  I'll buy one of those while I fight a bit.   I  live in Ontario, Canada. So if you know of a place between Newmarket  and Toronto let me know...

..these are the ones--on an Aussie site--but if you go to dealer search on this page, you should be able to find somewhere close to where you are..
