Consumer Description

THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. MY HEADLIGHTS KEEP GOING OUT. I'VE REPLACED THE LAMPS AND THIS WONT FIX THE PROBLEM. I CANT BELIEVE LEXUS IS LETTING THIS CONTINUE WITH SUCH A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE OF HAVING NON WORKING HEADLIGHTS. THEY GO ON AND OFF AT ALL TIMES. I'VE GOT KIDS AND IM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE ANY TIME CLOSE TO NIGHT FALL WITH THEM IN THE CAR. I NOTICE THEY ARE ON THEN 5 MINUTES LATER THEY FLICKER OFF. I TURN THE SWITCH ON AND OFF AND THEY STAY ON FOR A BIT THEN TURN OFF AGAIN. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND IT LOOKS LIKE ITS AFFECTING MANY OF US. ITS SO FRUSTRATING THAT I CANT GET A REASON FOR IT AND I'VE GOTTEN 3 DIFFERENT ESTIMATES ON THE REPAIR FOR 5 DIFFERENT THINGS. NO ON CAN TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM IS THEY JUST WANT ME TO START REPLACING THINGS FOR 1,000'S OF DOLLARS AND NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP US. *TR
