Equipment problem #1

I was driving at night switched headlights to high beams - few minutes later switched back to low beams and all lights dash and head lights went completely out . Tried to pull head light knob and nothing - pitch black . Luckily I was a short distance from my home. This is extremely dangerous ! I have found 33 complaints (so far) about this same problem. This definitely should qualify and be recalled . Please take immediate action . Thank you.

Equipment problem #2

My lights are on the dashboard and it's saying anit-lock brakes and trac-off. There's a noise in the steering column.

Equipment problem #3

When I bought my 2002 Buick Century in 2003, I asked the dealer to turn off the drl on the car. They insisted they could not because of manufacturer & highway safety laws, but said I could contact the mfg. But that it required much paperwork & an extensively satisfactory reason for this to be done, so I quit asking. Once again I have decided to try to get the drl on my car turned off, since it seems to cause so much confusion to on coming traffic when I am signaling to change lane or turn. I contacted Buick & got customer support rep, that had no idea what drl even is, & declined to escalate my case up. At best she told me to go to a dealer. So the dealer tells me to go the the mfg. Then the mfg tells me to go to the dealer. Can you do anything to help me? all I want is to drive my car without the parking lights on! I thought it was illegal to drive with parking lights on.
