Consumer Description

THE CAR HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY STARTED GOING OUT (WHILE DRIVING) INTERMITTENTLY. TO GET THEM TO TURN BACK ON, I HAVE TO TOGGLE THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH THROUGH ALL THE SETTINGS IN THE HOPES THAT THEY WILL COME BACK ON (WHICH THEY OCCASIONALLY DO.) THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS GOING FAST, SLOW AND NOT MOVING. IT HAPPENS IN ANY TYPE OF OUTSIDE LIGHT. THE SENSOR IS NOT BLOCKED OR DIRTY AND IT HAPPENS WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT IN AUTOMATIC MODE.
