When my vehicle was under warranty I did have a problem with the lights going completely out for a few seconds at night while driving. The blinked off and then on again. When I took it in for a repair and mentioning all the little things that were not working before the warrranty was up I had mentioned that along with a few other minor complaints. The did not find any problem with the lights. I did have a problem also with the alignment and they said that was fine also and it was not fixed. But it definatly had a problem with that also. The same thing happened to me later on while driving at night when the lights went out. But they did come back on after a few seconds. It is a very scary feeling when driving in the country at night and the light go out. It has been happening more now. My vehicle has 55,000 on it. I think that is to premature to have such an expensive safety problem. I did call the dealer and he said that the lighting system for replacement is like $1,200. They only made that lighting system for 2 years and I can see why. It is faulty. Has there been other problems? please let me know what I can do about this. Thank you
