| Description of the problem | The passenger side headlight turns off intermittently. It will turn on again if you turn the headlights off and back on, but then will go out again. I have read online about many other toyota owners, specifically those with priuses, but also some siennas, having this problem. Dealers don't know how to resolve it - mine wants to replace the bulb for close to $500, but can't guarantee this will resolve the problem and the bulb is apparently working, just not all the time. This is a safety issue to have a non-working headlight. |
