Consumer Description

ONE HEADLIGHT ON MY CAR KEEPS SHUTTING OFF, WHILE THE OTHER IS FINE. I AM ABLE TO "FIX" THE ISSUE BY TURNING MY HEADLIGHTS OFF AND THEN TURNING THEM ON AGAIN. DEALERS INITIALLY TOLD ME IT WAS BECAUSE THE BULB BURNED OUT, BUT I REPLACED BOTH AT THE SAME TIME, AND IT'S ALWAYS THE DRIVER'S SIDE BULB THAT "BURNS OUT." UPON FURTHER REVIEW ON PUBLIC FORUMS, IT APPEARS THE BULB IS PERFECTLY FINE AND THERE'S SOME TYPE OF ELECTRICAL ISSUE/CONNECTION PROBLEM THAT CAUSES PROBLEMS WITH THE BULB. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON AND IN-MOTION ON ANY STREET.
