| Description of the problem | When driving at night, the headlights will come on and off and flash for no apparent reason. Lights will completely turn off and then when you turn the switch on and off again, the lights work again on and off. You will be driving down a dark road and the lights will just turn off. This happened last year for a few days or so and then worked fine for a few months then started turning off again. This is a very dangerous situation. I believe this has been reported by more people having the same issue. We have three children that ride in the van and my wife also drives every night delivering the newspaper. |
