general problems of the 2012 Mazda MAZDA6

I own a 2012 Mazda 6, VIN#1yvhz8dh1c5m14865, that I bought in 2012. For the past couple of years I've been dealing with electrical issues with this car. For a few years I was just dealing with the headlights continuously going out every 3 or 4 months. At first I was thinking the light was defective, but after some research I learned that this is a more than a common occurrence with these cars. This is the main complaint. It has been linked to the electrical system that your service department said was the issue. It also mentioned the electrical issue causing the car to suddenly shut down which is the problem I am currently having now. My car has shutdown a total of 4 times, the last time being on the interstate. This is ridiculous! this is a known problem by Mazda that has not been addressed. Are you waiting for someone to die in an accident? this needs to be fixed immediately. My daughter drives this car!.
