Consumer Description

WHEN THE CAR IS COMPLETELY WARMED UP AND I'M DRIVING ABOUT 10 MINUTES FURTHER. FIRST THE DAYLIGHT RUNNING LIGHTS GO OUT. THEN THE TURN SIGNALS IN FRONT DON'T WORK. THEN THE HIGH BEAMS DON'T WORK. ALL WORK WHILE THE CAR IS COLD. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MILES AN HOUR WHEN SUDDENLY THE HIGH BEAMS WENT OUT. I WAS IN A PANIC AND QUICKLY SWITCHED ON THE FOG LIGHTS. I COULD NOT GET THE HEADLIGHT TO TURN BACK ON. ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH MY LOW BEAMS. AFTER THE CAR WARMED UP THE LOW BEAMS WOULD SUDDENLY TURN OFF. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS A SAFETY RECALL ITEM AND THEY FIXED IT WITH A JUMPER CABLE.
