Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR THE RIGHT HEADLIGHT WILL GO OFF. YOU CAN TURN THE SWITCH TO THE OFF POSITION AND THEN ON AGAIN AND THE LIGHTS WILL COME BACK ON. AFTER THAT SOMETIMES BOTH HEADLIGHTS WILL GO AND THAT'S A VERY SCARY. THING WHEN YOU HAVE THE FAMILY THAT YOU LOVE AND CARE FOR IN THERE WITH YOU...I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND BEEN TOLD THE BALANCE CONTROLS ARE OVER HEATING, BUT IN WINTER I CAN START THE CAR IN THE DRIVE WAY AND THE LIGHTS WILL FLICKER AND GO OUT BOTH OF THEM.....CAN GM STAND BEHIND THERE PRODUCT SO WE CAN KEEP OUR HARD EARNED DOLLARS IN AMERICA...... *TR
