Consumer Description

MY HEADLIGHTS, DRIVING LIGHTS, PARK LIGHTS, AND TURN SIGNALS ARE NOT WORKING. THIS BEGAN WHEN I STARTED TO GO SOMEWHERE LAST NIGHT. ALL OF THESE THINGS WERE WORKING THE DAY BEFORE. THE TAIL LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, AND BRAKE LIGHTS ARE WORKING IN THE REAR. MY VEHICLE IS GARAGED WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE. MY RADIO, CD PLAYER, OR SATELLITE RADIO WOULD NOT OPERATE 2 DAYS AGO AND STARTED WORKING THE NEXT TIME I STARTED MY CAR. ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO THE CAR WOULDN'T START. IT ACTED LIKE THE SECURITY SYSTEM HAD BEEN ACTIVATED AS IT WOULD CRANK, BUT NOT START. I WAITED FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND TRIED IT AGAIN AND IT STARTED THE FIRST TIME. I HAVE CHECKED ALL FUSES. I AM TAKING IT TO THE REPAIR SHOP TODAY TO SEE IF THEY CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING. THESE PROBLEMS ARE INTERMITTENT AND DO NOT REPEAT OFTEN ENOUGH TO DIAGNOSE PROPERLY. I CAN SEE THIS BEING VERY DANGEROUS IF I WERE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. I LIVE IN A RURAL AREA WITH A LARGE DEER POPULATION AND IT IS HARD ENOUGH TO AVOID THEM WITH THE HEADLIGHTS WORKING. *TR
