| Description of the problem | When i started my car last week, the drivers side headlight was out. I assumed it was the bulb but took it to a shop where they tried to replace the bulb but i was told it's not the bulb. It began working again a few days later but seems to turn on and off but without any consistancy. When i was driving to work this morning, both headlights were turning on and off together. The fog lights are working but i have to turn the headlights on and off every few minutes to get them to come back on. The headlights were checked again but i am being told again it is not the bulbs. This is very unsafe! I am waiting for them to turn off one late night and not return nd cause an accident, injuring me and my family. *tt |
