Your headlights blink on and off unexpectedly even though the car is functioning normally. This issue has been happening since the vehicle was new. The headlights may blink while driving or parked, which could be a wiring or electrical control module problem.

Your right tail light keeps burning out — the bulb fails every eight months or less. The dealer has been notified but is charging you to replace the bulb each time. The issue likely involves either a faulty bulb socket, corroded wiring connections, or an electrical problem causing the bulb to burn out prematurely.

NHTSA #: 827046
