Using the turn signal leverl causes the headlights to go out. Initally the headlights flickered briefly and stayed on, but they are now requiring some jiggling of the turn signal level to stay on. Also, the headlights go out in switching between high beam and low beam, using the same lever.I am contacting the dealer today.below is listed the number of failures over the last couple weeks. I directed myself to this site, but you don't have that on your list.
