Good morning, this may not be an emergency, or a severe safety hazard, but. . . I found that my 2007 Chrysler Pt Cruiser had an annoying flaw. When I had my headlights on with the driving lights, and I put on my turn signal, the headlight on that side would go out. Since nothing else was affected, I chose to keep my driving lights off. However, I have noticed is that other Chryslers (300, 200), a Jeep cherokee, a chevy camaro, and a Volkswagen do the same thing, but without the driving light being on. It is always when the turn signal is engaged while the headlights are on. I have only noticed this recently. . . I am not sure why, but I am beginning to see this a lot. On a dark, rainy night, that could eliminate a whole quadrant of light is a person is turning. There is an electrical issue with several different manufacturers. I am also going to contact other entities, but I think this is a real problem. Thank you. Jules ohrin-greipp.

Takata recall. I was driving down the highway and my headlights went out I pulled over and I didnt have door locks to unlock the doors. All the fuses are good. I was researching online and alot of Pt Cruisers are having the issue it seems that the connector for the fuse block goes bad I have been dealing with this for a few months now. I think its redundant that ypu have to pay 150-250 dollars every time this happens. When no one really has that kinda money.
I had just put fuel in my car and was driving across a parking lot. I proceeded to park my car and noticed smoke rising out of my steering wheel and a burning smell. My lower set of lights ( fog lights) had turned on by themselves, which is odd since they haven't been working for at least two years. In order to stop the smoking in the steering wheel, I had to remove fuse #8. Same set of lights have turned on before a few years back draining my battery since I couldn't turn them off with their switch. In addition, my headlights turn off automatically at random while I'm driving and my clock lights go out frequently. Headlights have gone out on me 5 times over the past 3 years. I try not to drive much at night as a result.
2006 Chrysler Pt Cruiser touring edition. Right front headlight went out, replaced with new bulb, still no light. Mechanic states ticm (total intergrated control module) went bad. Research showed this is a common failure in this vehicle. Repair exceeds $900 and will cause car to fail nys inspection.
