Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Headlights, dash lights and interior lights go dim/bright/dim/bright etc. at night when acceleration with foot or with use of cruse control. notified saturn and also dealer. they both said this is a characteristic of the relay. dealer also said they had the same proiblem with the l series. saturn nor dealer have attempted to talk directly to me or fix it despite e-mails, letters, phone calls. i worry that an 18 wheeler might think i am flashing him that it is ok to pull over to the right. this is a dangerous situation and the new 05 saturn relay should not have been released for sale to the public if they had the same problem last year with the l series. check "mycarstats.com" for same complaints on the l series.
