| Description of the problem | I have had the problem of having to toggle the lights to go on and off since i purchased the van used in 2009. From that point the lights would work with toggling them off. But then the problem has worsened and the head lights will not come on. This has happened ever so often. I thought i could turn on the high beams to be able to see, however the high beams won't stay on either. Toggling them back and forth doesn't work anymore. I need a solution to this problem. I purchased this van for a reason. I have children....... I see that there have been other complaints about the same problem..... And that this has put families in dangerous situations..... And to a divorced woman with 2 children this would be costly to find out exactly what the problem is...... |
