LIGHTS SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING @10PM ON A SMALL PAVED HIGHWAY WITH VERY LITTLE TRAFFIC. MY WIFE MANAGED TO COME TO A HALT WITHOUT INCIDENT WHILE I REACHED OVER AND PRESSED ON THE MANUAL HEADLIGHT SWITCH, WHICH CAME ON. HAD THERE BEEN AN ACCIDENT WHITH SOME INJURIES OR DEATH THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN ALOT OF QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED BY SOMEONE. I AM RETIRED AND I FEEL I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEFECTIVE COMPUTERIZED DEVICE. THIS WAS A PROGRAM VEHICLE WHEN I PURCHASED IT. I'VE BEEN DRIVING 50 YEARS AND NEVER HAD THE LIGHTS GO OUT EVER BEFORE. *AK
