NHTSA Complaint #10070479 — 1998 GMC ENVOY

WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY I DID HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTS GOING COMPLETELY OUT FOR A FEW SECONDS AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING. THE BLINKED OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN. WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR A REPAIR AND MENTIONING ALL THE LITTLE THINGS THAT WERE NOT WORKING BEFORE THE WARRRANTY WAS UP I HAD MENTIONED THAT ALONG WITH A FEW OTHER MINOR COMPLAINTS. THE DID NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTS. I DID HAVE A PROBLEM ALSO WITH THE ALIGNMENT AND THEY SAID THAT WAS FINE ALSO AND IT WAS NOT FIXED. BUT IT DEFINATLY HAD A PROBLEM WITH THAT ALSO. THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME LATER ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT WHEN THE LIGHTS WENT OUT. BUT THEY DID COME BACK ON AFTER A FEW SECONDS. IT IS A VERY SCARY FEELING WHEN DRIVING IN THE COUNTRY AT NIGHT AND THE LIGHT GO OUT. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE NOW. MY VEHICLE HAS 55,000 ON IT. I THINK THAT IS TO PREMATURE TO HAVE SUCH AN EXPENSIVE SAFETY PROBLEM. I DID CALL THE DEALER AND HE SAID THAT THE LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR REPLACEMENT IS LIKE $1,200. THEY ONLY MADE THAT LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR 2 YEARS AND I CAN SEE WHY. IT IS FAULTY. HAS THERE BEEN OTHER PROBLEMS? PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I CAN DO ABOUT THIS. THANK YOU
