Description of the problem	I was notified my right front headlight was out early in july, 2011. I took it to be repaired and was informed that a "module" needed to be replaced because these were 'high intensity" lights. On july 12,2011 the module was ordered by my mechanic and installed on july 13, 2012. In feb, 2012 my left front headlight went out. My mechanic ordered a new module on feb 15, 2012 and was installed on march 1, 2012. In june, 2012 i was stopped by police for having only one headlight. At that time my left headlight was out again (only 3 months later). Within the next few days i noticed that intermittently my headlights would turn off while driving, sometimes the right, sometimes the left, and sometime both at the same time. If i switched from auto to on, both headlights would turn back on for about 5 mins then either one or both would shut off. If i switched from on to auto, the same would happen for a couple minutes. I returned to my mechanic, but upon driving and keeping the lights on he could not get the same thing to happen. That was on july 20, 2012. Since that time, i have had to refrain from using my car after dark, because for no apparent reason, the lights will shut off. There are times i have all lights and then another driver will inform me that i have no headlights at all. I am aware that the toyota prius had an issue with this happening and am concerned that this is a problem with this car as well. These lights and modules are expensive to replace and having to replace them every 6 months or on a car that is less than 5 years old seems ridiculous while after replacing, the problem continues. The lack of headlights and not knowing when they go out is extremely dangerous and puts me and my family at risk for injury as well as others. I would like to know if this is a general problem with toyota cars with these type of lights or an isolated case.
