Headlight Switch problems of the 2005 Chevrolet Corvette

While coming home from work this evening (completely dark / 6:30pm) my low beam headlights both shut off. I was on a four lane road coming up to a traffic light that was green for me. I noticed just before getting to the traffic light my headlights had shut off. I slowed some thinking I had accidentally hit a switch or something and thank goodness I slowed some. As I approached the light a car turned right in front of me. I had to slam on my brakes and really thought I was going to hit the other car. They obviously didn't see me since I had no headlights. When I got home I checked online to see where the head light fuse was located on my car thinking that's all it was. I found out through online articles this is a problem that is under investigation for my model Corvette with over 100k miles. I let the car cool down per what was said in some of the forums and just went out to crank my car and the headlights came on. This is a very very dangerous situation and given gm's reluctance to recall known dangerous issues with some of their vehicles I hope your agency will force a recall on this. I very nearly t-boned another driver tonight because I feel they just didn't see me without my head lights on. Thank you.

I started to have issues with my low beam headlights turning on in my 2005 c6 Corvette. The switch was turned to automatic and would not turn on. When the switch was turned to manual mode the low beam lights would still not turn on. The high beams and fog lamps work with regular success. When the car sits for long periods of time and the car is cool the low beam lights will turn on and stay on for a short period of time, but as soon as the car is brought up to operating temperature the low beam lights fail to work. I did some research and found out this is a major problem for 2005-2007 c6 Corvettes and the NHTSA along with Chevrolet should file an immediate recall before lives are lost. It's a easy fix with replacement of the fuse box in the engine compartment.

Driving on the freeway in traffic at night, my low beam headlights shut off and my only option was to use my hi beams. People were flashing their bright lights and I was blinding other drivers. The next day the headlights came on, then switched off 5 minutes after driving. For the last few days they have rarely even came on, and when they do, they will turn off quickly. I drive my Corvette every day, and this is very unsafe. A police officer stopped me and gave me a verbal warning last night when my lights switched off and I had to turn my bright lights on right in front of him.
