| Description of the problem | While driving - usually at night and at all speeds my headlights will flicker like a strobe light and then go off completely, including the interior lights as well indicating my speed, etc.. Sometimes i can use my high beams to at least be able to see, however, even sometimes this does not work. Very, very dangerous to not be able to see or be seen at night in random places on the freeway, in the city, etc.... Please someone help - dealer states that they have no clue as to what the problem might be!! Another problem, i have been dealing with, is the air conditioner in the vehicle will stop and not blow any air. I took it to the dealership and they stated that they did not have the part to fix my car. On top of that they gave me a piece of my car that apparently fell off, while they were inspecting it??!!?? They told me it was not their fault and that it is a faulty piece called the housing which is part of the inlet housing and that it would cost $1,156. 38 to fix. Unbelievable! |
