Consumer Description

ON THREE GM VEHICLES THAT I KNOW OF (02 CENTURY, 05 CENTURY, 06 GRAND PRIX) THE HEADLIGHTS WILL GO OUT ON HIGH BEAM UNEXPECTEDLY. REPLACING THE HEADLIGHT HIGH BEAM SWITCH FIXES THE PROBLEM. THE 06 GRAND PRIX WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY BUT THE DEALER REFUSED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID THAT UNTIL THE SWITCH FAILS COMPLETELY THEY WILL NOT REPLACE IT. GOING 70 DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT NIGHT AND SUDDENLY NO LIGHTS IS NOT VERY SAFE. I KNOW MY VEHICLE (02 CENTURY) WAS HIGH MILEAGE BUT THE OTHER TWO ARE NOT. THE DEALER NOT FIXING THE GRAND PRIX THAT BELONGS TO A FRIEND OF MINE KIND OF TICKED ME OFF. *TR
