I was driving back from Georgia at 4:30 am pitch dark and my headlamps cut off. I was next to a semi and almost crashed into him. I had to use my brights but could not figure out how to keep them on so I had to keep flashing them to see. Since then I've had to drive at night tonight on May 23, 2015 at 9 pm and my lights do not come on at all now. The only way to get home once again was to drive with my brights on. I had my brother test the lights and they come on and cut off randomly at will. This is not safe and they should be recalled.

The low beam headlights on our Lacrosse stay on even when the ignition is off. We have to pull the fuse or disconnect the battery to turn them off. The high beam headlights and brake lights don't work at all. Not sure what the issue could be and we cannot drive the car with out brake lights.
