2004 DODGE RAM 1500 I'VE BEEN COMPLAINING SINCE THE TRUCK HAD 90000 MILES ON IT ABOUT THE HEADLIGHTS GOING OUT AND NOT TURNING BACK ON. I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT'S THE HEADLIGHT MODULE AND I REPLACED IT WITH A NEW AFTERMARKET ONE BUT THE TRUCKS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. I WAS DRIVING AND THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT AND I COULDN'T SEE AND HIT A DEER AT 20MPH ON A BACK ROAD . POLICE WERE NOT CALLED BECAUSE THE DAMAGE WAS ONLY THE BUMPER . BUT IF THIS DOESN'T GET FIXED SOMEONE COULD GET HURT AS WITHOUT LIGHT YOU CAN'T SEE TO DRIVE AND THE LIGHTS WON'T COME BACK ON. THIS IS JUST LIKE THE FORD RECALL I RECEIVED FOR MY CAR... *TR

HEADLIGHTS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT 4PM ON 12-7-16 AND TURNED MY HEADLIGHTS ON AS I WAS DRIVING PEOPLE WERE HONKING AT ME AND THEN I NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS WERE OUT . WENT AND INSTALLED NEW BULBS AND THEY WORKED BUT WENT OUT AND NOW THEIR STAYING OUT EXCEPT FOR THE HAZARD LIGHTS!!! I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED 67 MILES HOME AS IT'S DARK AND I COULDN'T SEE AND WITH THE SPEED LIMIT BEING 65MPH ON HIGHWAY, I COULDN'T WALK. *TR
