Consumer Description

I NOTICED THAT MY LEFT (DRIVER SIDE) HEADLIGHT WAS OUT. SO I REPLACED THE BULB, WHICH WOULD BE THE OBVIOUS REASON FOR THE LIGHT NOT WORKING. HOWEVER, THIS DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION AND DISCUSSION WITH A MECHANIC, IT TURNS OUT IT'S THE TIMP THAT IS BAD AND CAUSING THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT NOT TO WORK. IN ADDITION, AFTER DOING MORE RESEARCH ONLINE IT APPEARS THAT THIS ISSUE IS MORE THAN COMMON WITH THE 2007 DODGE CALIBER. I CAN'T SEE HOW A RECALL HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN FILED FOR THIS ISSUE GIVEN IT IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD IF ONE'S HEADLIGHTS DON'T WORK AT NIGHT. IN ADDITION, IT CAUSES SOMEONE TO BE PULLED OVER. *TR
