Consumer Description

HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF RANDOMLY. BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT HEADLIGHT TURN OFF BY ITSELF OR BOTH WILL TURN OFF TOGETHER WHILE DRIVING. PAID $385 FOR NEW HID LIGHT AS IT IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY, BUT ISSUE STILL OCCURRING. PRIUS IN SHOP FOR THE THIRD TIME AND DEALER SAYS MOST LIKELY I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR ANOTHER NEW HID LIGHT TO ENSURE THAT IT IS NOT SIMPLY A HEADLIGHT ISSUE. WE HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER THREE TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE AND GIVEN A FIX-IT TICKET ONCE. DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT ON DARK ROADS. *TR
