Description of the problem	Toyota and the nhtsa continues to ignore the problems with the intermittent operation of hid headlights in the avalon. They intent for someone to died before correcting this problem. I was informed today by toyota direct that my hid computers are overheating causing my right headlamp to fail for the second time and the left highbeam needing to be replaced. My cost to fix is $2788. 00. Technician apologized but clearly it's not a dealership problem - this is a manufacturer problem - same a prius. If tanazians can overthrown a government on facebook, surely avalon owners can kill production of this vehicle before someone dies in an accident due to no headlights. Of course we need headlights to drive our vehicles at night!! I am going to create a facebook page today to start the global process of taking this vehicle of the market. Those reading this, please pass the message to those looking to purchase an avalon. Facebook, twitter and social media that works. I refuse to left toyota crap on the safety of my family and yours should we meet at night--and i have to navigate without headlights. States require headlights to be on when it's raining, day lamps for safety and of course at night. Look for the facebook page. Never never buy a toyota!
