On the 1997 Chevy S-10 the headlight wiring is not heavy enough to carry enough current to the headlights making them dim and very poor visibility. Please recall and fix to make better visibility.

While driving at night with highbeams turn on, lights started flashing from highbeam to daytime running lights. To temporarily stop the problem was to switch from highbeam to lowbeam. This is a very serious problem that can lead to fatal accidents!!!
