Consumer Description

UPON INITIAL START OF THE VEHICLE, JUST ABOUT EVERY START, THE LEFT HEADLIGHT WILL FLICKER AND THEN SHUT OFF AND SHOW A LEFT DIPPED HEADLIGHT ON THE DISPLAY. SHUTTING OFF THE LIGHTS AND TURNING THEM BACK ON ALLOWS THE BULB TO TURN ON AGAIN, BUT THE FLICKERING KEEPS HAPPENING UNTIL THE LIGHT WARMS UP THEN IT STOPS. THE BULB WILL REPEATEDLY FLICKER AND SHUT OFF CAUSING A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. *TR
