Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: We recently took our 2001 chrysler pt cruiser in the shop for a state inspection for renewal of our license plates. in the process, the vehicle kept blowing 40 amp fuses. after 3 hours of searching. the "electrical short" was located "on both sides" of the front headlights". when the "high beams" were used it would blow a fuse. this sounds strange?? one side maybe?? but both headlights?? this should be a "factory recall". you can not use your "high beams" when driving?? could cost a loss of life. the shop charged me $225.00. it should have been fixed by the factory!! *tr
