What owners wrote

Without warning multi-function switch has been replaced 3 times. Vehicle was unable to use communication components.

May 2000

When the headlights are 'on' they compete with the running lights. Simply, the lights flash between the headlights and the running lights. This has happened numerous times over the past 2 years. I have replaced the light switch 3 times and when it gets 'hot', this happens again.
