Every time it rains moisture get in the headlights and they go out until it drys.
Tonight sept. 25th, 2016 it happened again. My dashboard went completely black for a minute or two. The first time it happened was several months ago and I thought it was a temporary glitch. Both incidents occurred while driving home at night on the freeway doing 70-75 miles/hr. I'm not sure if the headlights went out as well because I'm too focused on remaining calm and keeping my eyes on the road preventing an accident from happening. The car was in motion on the freeway while this occurred. This first time it happened I was driving straight down the freeway. The second time it occurred I was exiting and taking a curve on the loop. I don't know what it'll take for a recall to happen but I hope it won't take a deadly crash to occur before they decide to have a recall for this issue. I've read on other sites this problem is a known fact with the company and yet no action has taken place to remedy this. Someone do something!.
