| Description of the problem | Intermittent headlight failure on 2006 dodge grand caravan. Upon turning on headlights, they occasionally don't work. They intermittently fail completely while driving without notice or provocation resulting in a very dangerous situation. There are numerous complaints of this well known problem concerning other years of these vehicles on internet forums. There are no known reasons for the problem. I've asked my mechanic and a dodge dealer and they both say it's a well known problem without any answers. |
