problem #1

Grand Cherokee 4WD

  • miles
I was travelling at 55 mph when I went from highbeams to lowbeams and the headlights went out completely. They only returned after I switched from high to low beam again !! I took the vehicle in again for servicing and they replaced the turn signal/high beam switch. I went out to my vehicle Saturday night, 3.25.00 and the headlights would not turn on. Not until I switched the high beam and low beam switch again.
