What owners wrote
While going over any type of bumps at night at various speeds the fog lights flickered on/off. Also, the lens covering the headlights were loose. Took vehicle to dealership, and was informed by mechanic that nothing could be done to resolve problems. It was the way the vehicle was manufactured.
Dt*: the contact stated while driving at various speed the headlights illuminate intermittently. Upon inspection the dealership was unable to duplicate the cause.
