 The head light switches are defective and have been burning up. some have stuck on and melted the switches. not allowing the head lights to work or going out while driving down the road at night. the contact areas where the power is transfered to the fog or head lights are to small of a area. and are burning up or melting. the dealerships have been replacing a lot of them. but even some of the new ones they have installed are defective right out of the box and do not work. *nm
