| Description of the problem | When driving at night my headlights some times flicker like from high beams to low. This is bad enough, but when they go completely out on 2 lane highways at midnight it is heart stopping. Have learned it might be multi function switch ( turn signal switch). To be repaired at my expense even though there has been hundreds of complaints for this issue. Rep from hyundai told me he had never heard of this problem even as dealer mechanics says happens all the time.. Maybe another class action would get their attention before some is killed. |
