Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The interior and exterior lights on my 2003 saturn l200 intermittently dim. the events leading up to the failure was a defective electrical system design by the manufacturer, saturn. the failure and its consequences are that it is difficult, distracting and dangerous to operate this vehicle at night. nothing has been done to correct this failure, except for the manufacturer to hide behind a technical information bulletin (04-08-42-001) claiming this is "normal". i must assume then, that every other vehicle whose lights don't flicker must be "abnormal". the dealership refuses to correct this defect. *nm
