Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT NIGHT GOING AT 70 MPH AND SUDDENLY I RECEIVED LEFT DIP LIGHT WARNING AND AFTER 2 MINUTES RECEIVED RIGHT DIP LIGHT WARNING. I QUICKLY HAVE TO RESET THE LIGHT AFTER WHICH BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT LIGHTS CAME UP. AFTER SOME 20-30 MIN IT HAPPENED AGAIN.THERE ERE HIGH CHANCES OF FATAL CRASH AT 70 MPH ON A HIGHWAY AT NIGHT. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO ESCAPE THIS. THIS ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT BUT EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR SAFETY OF PASSENGERS.
