Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When starting the car cold, and idling the car... headlight and turn signal operation is normal. after approximately 20 minutes of driving the car (not idling) the headlights will go dark without warning (the headlamp doors remain open), and the right turn signal fails to operate. every 6 to 10 seconds, the entire electrical system proceeds to pulse after this occurs, unless the headlight switch is turned from low beam position to parking light position. the pulsing then stops, but the headlights are not lit and if turned off... the doors will not lift up again and the lights will not light. after letting the car sit for a period of time, the car seems to "reset" itself and the lights and signals will become operational for another 20 minutes of driving. this creates an extreme safety hazard. the cause is currently unknown. i plan to take it to my local dealer, norris auto mall for evaluation. *nm
