THE HEADLIGHTS ARE DIFFICULT TO SWITCH FROM HIGH TO LOW BEAM ON MY 2003 CHEVY IMPALA. THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE TURNED COMPLETELY OFF DURING EVENING DRIVING THREE DIFFERENT TIMES. WE HAVE YET TO CORRECT THE FAILURE, ALTHOUGH INTEND TO REPLACE THE SWITCH. THESE INCIDENTS APPEAR TO CORRELATE DIRECTLY WITH NHTSA ACTION NUMBER : PE06017. *TR
