Description of the problem	The high beams both blew out in december of 2011. One low beam also goes out occasionally, either the right or left. I can usually turn the lights on and off and get the low beams working. The toyota garage said i needed new high beam bulbs. I replaced the bulbs, but still had issues with the low beams going on and off. On june 12, 2012 the high beams blew again. The toyota garage said i needed new headlight assemblies for a total cost of $2500. 00. I have a 5 year 100,000 mile extended warranty but have been told the headlight assemblies are not covered. I am going to take this decision to arbitration with toyota. *jb
