1 Headlight Switch problem

Failure Date: 08/30/2005

Was driving after dark last night and my headlights just stopped working (both of them) almost caused another car to hit me, because they could not see me. I pulled over and proceeded to check the fuses, etc and they were all fine and the high beams and parking lights worked, just not the headlights. Took the car to the place I bought it from and after 2 hours his mechanics figured out that it was the relay switch that had blown and had to be replaced.

2 Headlight Switch problem

Failure Date: 04/03/2003

When the brakes were applied, the front end pulled excessively to the right or left. Also, when making turns, consumer heard a loud "grinding" coming from the front end. Dealer diagnosed that the entire front end needed to be replaced due to ball joint failure. The whining noise was heard when going around curves. The marker lights had become inoperative when pulling out of "int" switch and the head lamp switch was replaced, and upon acceleration, there was a pinging noise in the passing gear. . The tie rods were also replaced.
