LeSabre 6-cyl

  • 35,771 miles
When the headlight switch is depressed, it stays in! ie., it does not pop back out like it should. Every time I leave the car, it takes 20 minutes for the headlight to go out automatically. Note: I tried to check on recalls on your web site, but it does not show Lesabre as one of the models of my 2001 Buick.
