| Description of the problem | The headlights do not operate as expected. Sometimes they do not illuminate when the switch is rotated to headlight position, sometimes the headlights flicker while driving, sometimes the headlights shut off automatically while driving. The problem has been intermittent since about 6 months after the vehicle was purchased but frequency has increased drastically in the last 3 month. Now the operation of headlights has become completely unreliable yet difficult to troubleshoot because failure cannot be reproduced on demand (i. E. Headlights function properly when at dealership). |
