| Description of the problem | The headlights on my 2005 dodge grand caravan won't come on sometimes when i turn the switch and once they have even gone out on me while i was driving down the road. If i turn the switch back to off and then on again they will come on but this is a problem that makes me worry. Now i'm on edge when i drive at night wondering when it's going to happen again. Last night for the first time my lights went from bright to dim on their own. They just changed while i was driving down the road. I have not had this looked at yet. The van isn't under warranty anymore and we know it's going to cost a fortune just to have it looked at. |
