| Description of the problem | I have been having problems with my headlights for some time now. When the problem began, i would turn on the light switch and after a delay the headlights would come on. Sometimes when turning the switch off they would remain on. For the past few months my headlights would just turn off while driving, which is very dangerous at night. When this happens, the dashboard lights remain on as well as the yellow lights and tail lights. Some days they don't come on at all. I have taken it to several auto shops for repair, however the lights would come on when taken in so nobody has been able to fix the problem. |
