| In the past six months, the headlights on my 2007 buick lacrosse have turned off on their own several times. twice this has occurred at night and twice during twilight. adjusting the headlight switch does nothing to affect the lights. this problem affects the low beam lights only. the car has been taken to the dealer with this reported problem 3 times. they report that no problem was found, but they did replace a part once that has had not remedied the problem. *tr | |||
