I have a 02 olds Intrigue and it has a flickering in intensity issue with the headlights. This is a driving distraction not just for me but anyone in front of me . . . As they may feel brighted or it may distract them and they may vere away from me. I have had people slow down when directly in front of me because they thought I was signaling them with my lights, also god forbid a cop ever see my car doing this here in mo they may think I'm warning others of a cop in the area. I've read up on this and gm says its normal operation but yet many of us owners are having the same issues. They put out different altenators but the only one I've read abt success with cost upwards of $400+ dollars. This is a defective altenator issue that drops out for a few seconds and thats what causes the pulsing of lights. If I wanted to be in a dance hall I would go, my vision is already compromised and this is a serious distraction.
