MY CAR HAS BEEN HAVING A HEADLIGHT PROBLEM. IT STARTED THE MIDDLE OF 2007 AND IS STILL HAPPENING. I REPLACED THE SWITCH BOX IN THE DASHBOARD AND THE PROBLEM HAD STOPPED. IN JANUARY 2008 THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN. I HAPPENS MAINLY AT NIGHT, THE LIGHTS WILL BE ON THEN THEY JUST GO OUT AND SOMETIMES THEY TAKE LONGER THAN A SECOND TO COME BACK ON. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM BECAUSE AT NIGHT WHEN I DON'T HAVE LIGHTS I CANNOT SEE. ONE OF THESE TIMES, I WILL GO INTO THE DITCH. *TR

MOVING THE VAN BACK TO THE ORIGINAL PARKING SPACE REQUIRED ME TO GO 1/2 MILE, WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE WAS HEARD, I PULLED INTO THE ORIGINAL PARKING LOT TO PARK. WHEN EXAMINING THE BACK OF MY VEHICLE, I DISCOVERED THE…

TWICE THE VEHICLE WAS IN FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM AND THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IN JUNE OF…
