Headlight Switch Problems of Acura RL

My headlights flicker a lot while driving at night. They go out sometimes one at a time, driver's side headlight or passenger side headlight. Sometimes they both go off and I am required to turn the headlights off and back on using the switch. This is very dangerous and the afs light comes on every so often. This needs to be fixed immediately. I read from several forums that a lot of Acura owners for years 2005 and 2006 experienced this same issue that I am going through. I need Acura to resolve this issue. Is there a recall for this? please have someone contact me ASAP!.

While driving at night, on numerous occasions the right headlight would flicker intermittently and then go out completely. You have to turn headlight switch off and then back on for the headlight to come back on. I have concerns for me and my family's safety.

Please investigate for a possible recall order on this make and model, thank you.

2005 Acura Rl low beam headlights totally failed, unexpectedly, and the car was not moving forward. This has been a reoccurring problem with the left side low beam, sometimes I didn't know it until told and now it happens to both at the same time while idling in my driveway. My daughter told me both had cut out on her earlier this month, but I could not verify until today. Turning the switch off / on will bring the lights back on, but then again for how long is questionable. Dealers deny it exist or can't verify, but a quick web search has now validated my problem has existed for a very long time with this car. This is much more serious than I thought, clearly a problem you should be aware of.

My 2005 Acura Rl has defective headlights. For no reason understood the headlights begin to flicker on and off then eventually go totally black when driving. This happens almost every time I drive now. My car only has 60,000 miles. This is inexcusable. The only way to get them to work is to turn the light switch all the way in the off position and then back to the on position. This is a very dangerous defect that happens while driving. I almost got into an accident because of this and have heard of other 05-06 Acura Rl owners getting into accidents because of this. There have been numerous complaints of this with all 2005-2006 Acura Rl's. Acura does not want to admit there is a serious defective lights system with the 05-06 Rl. What's it going to take for them to offer a recall on this problem. Someone's life in an accident.

2005 Acura Rl intermittent headlight problem. Headlights flicker when going over bumps but also one or the other of the other headlights goes completely dark while driving at night. Sometimes it is the left and sometimes it is the right headlight which goes dark while driving and for no apparent reason. I can reset the dimmed headlight by switching the headlights from auto to off and then back to auto again. 2- the failure is very often. At least 3 time a week. 3- I took my car to the dealer and paid about $98 so far but it happened again the very next day. According to what I'm reading online is that they will charge me from $600-$1200 per light and still not sure if that will fix the issue since it has been going on for over 5 years(since the car was out for sale).

I have a 2007 Acura Rl, on approx. Nov. 22, 2009 and 3 times in total so far that week the head lights start flickering for no reason when I went over small bumps in the road. This made it very hard to drive and I had to slow down to be safe as it was dark out. The light switch was in the normal on position [ not auto ]. I went online to see if others have the same problem. Many others advised they did! I am going to contact Acura as soon as I can. This needs to be addressed please. Thanks for your time, as some people advised their headlights went off completely.

My 05 Rl's right side low beam headlight started flickering several months ago and now the flickering has progressed to headlight going completely out. When the light switch is turned from auto to off and then back on, the lights come back on.
