- the contact stated that while driving on 12/27/06 at 35 mph, had high beam head lights on, and he tried to toggle the high beam to low beam and all the lights turned off. The contact stated that he played with the toggle switch and the lights came back on seconds later. The contact took the vehicle to dealership on 12/29/06. The mechanic looked at vehicle, and told the contact they found nothing wrong with the vehicle. The contact hasn't had this problem since, but did find a recall #06E038000. Updated 03/07/07.
