Description of the problem	When i was driving my car all of a sudden the headlights started to flash/turn on and off uncontrollably. I took it in for service and the dealership concluded that my wires has melted and fused together. He told me that i was lucky that there was not a fire that started, that is how bad they were melted. I had to replace wiring harness and get new bulbs, which cost me $400. 00. There are many complaints about this issue in online forums and i am scared that something like this could happen again. I believe that it is related to the may 14, 2014 recall regarding the electrical system, electronic stability control, vehicle speed control. This is terribly dangerous and needs to be addressed by gm before more innocent people get hurt, please help!
