1) the head lights on my 1996 Chevrolet S10 have never worked right. At first, when I turned on the igh beams, they would stay on for less than a minute, then I would lose the dashboard lights and the daytime running lights would come on. This situation is getting steadily worse. Now the low beams are exhibiting the same problem. 2) the headlights don't work, meaning that I can't drive it at night or when it rains. State law requires that the headlights be on when you use the windshield wipers. 3) I have spent thousands trying to get this problem corrected, but the service personnel just take the money and never solve the problem.

Headlights turn off intermittently while driving. Lights remain off for a few seconds and then come back on.

While driving with the headlights on the headlights would periodically turn off without prior warning. While headlights were off, running lights inside the vehicle were still on. Dealer replaced light switch, but the problem still occurs. Defect allows poor or no visibility.

Headlight effectiveness is extremely poor on both high and low beams. Checked voltage to lamps: Solid 14.2V under all conditions. Contacted dealer and reviewed problem w. service manager. Unable to recommend a solution and there is no factory recall on record. (have checked back several time since; still nothing from GM). Replaced both headlamps with Napa after-market units at about 10,000 miles; this change resulting in minor improvement, due mostly, I think, to wider beam spread, but over all performance is still the worst I have ever had on a vehicle (including my 6-volt 1934 Plymouth with no voltage regulator), and I have owned a lot of old vehicles with marginal lights.

I have been having this problem off and on for the last 40000 miles, the dealer claims not to be able to locate anything wrong with the vehicle.

While driving headlights will spontaneously cut off and stay off fof a couple of seconds to a couple of minutes. When light switch gets warm contact is open and lights fail until switch cools slighty.

Headlights and dash lights will turn on and off intermittently, causing poor visibility. The head light switch has been replaced, and problem has not reoccurred since.

Headlights briefly went out for no reason - complete darkness - very dangerous could easily cause a crash - Chevrolet said it would cost 85 dollars to replace and that I would have to pay for it.....
