Description of the problem	I own a 2004 audi a4 and last year my passengers side headlight started to flicker and would even go out as i was driving! Major safety hazard! I am on many audi forums and there are pages and pages of the same issue! Do you know how dangerous this is for me and my children! And last time i went to audi to fix my right (drivers side) headlight it cost me over $1,000 dollars. I just do not have the money for that right now and i think it is ridiculous that audi customers all have the same problems and the nhtsa or audi are doing nothing to solve it. I keep this car up in immaculate condition with folder and folders of service pages so its not from neglect and everyone else is having the same problem! I don't know if you know how dangerous it is because the only way to turn my passenger side headlight back on when it goes out is to pull over shut my lights and turn them back on then it comes back on and will either stay on for a little bit and then start flickering again and go out again. I am taking my life in my hands driving this car and its my only car to commute with. This issue needs to be fixed very soon!
