When headlights are put on the dash board instrument cluster (the three circles) does not illuminate. No visibility of instrument panel. This happens all times when putting headlights on, no matter if stationary or moving.
Had my car going on a year and I have made my trips to NY in August of 2014 a week after I purchased the car and going to mi may of this year and once I turn my headlights off I lose all dash lights when I turn them back on. Had to use my phone for light just to see my speed. Doesn't happen all the time just the 2 times so far when I took my trips from nc n back.

First is check engine light on. Code say misfire. Second paint is pitting and white areas appearing. Third headlights fogging up.
Highway safety there are millions of autos on the u. S. Highways (and around the world), with headlight lenses that are foggy – that is, no longer clear. The result is that the light from the headlights is dispersed more widely and not focused forward, for the driver to see the road ahead. For drivers going in the opposite direction, it results in blinding them. All of this can contribute to increased traffic accidents and deaths. The auto manufacturers have been allowed to get away with this terrible car design far too long. They must be required to use materials for the headlight lenses, that will not pit and abrade over time, thus retaining the clarity of original manufacture. Just look around at vehicles on the road. The process of deterioration begins when the vehicle hits the road for the first time. The plastic materials used gradually abrade due to wind, mud, salt, etc. , etc. While there are processes that auto owners can use or have performed, to polish the lenses and reasonably restore the original clarity. Few do it because they either don’t recognize the problem or do not want to spend the time/money to correct it. If the government can require such safety items as seat belts and air bags, it can require better materials for headlight lenses and save lives. Go back to glass – this condition did not develop with the old sealed-beam headlights. Glass can be molded to any shape desired. The matter should have been addressed years ago. The NHTSA has been negligent in not doing something about this issue. Don’t wait!! while I cannot specify a specific date of an accident or vehicle related to this problem, I have entered below, in order to get this message delivered. As I said just look at cars in your parking lot, even you own vehicle (unless it is only a couple of years old) and you will see what I mean.
My 2001 Sebring sedan has failure of the uv coating places on the plastic headlight lens. It began in 2003 and has progressed to a point where they need to be sanded and polished every few months for visibility. Sylvania manufacturer. Uv is the problem so go back to glass, duh a no brainer.

While driving headlights intermittently start to flicker, then slowly fade out. After a few minutes, headlights will come back on as if nothing ever happened. This problem occurred on many occasions in the last few months.
