When driving with low-beams (headlights on), I switch to hi-beam. The lights went off!! I tapped the brake pedal and the lights (hi-beams) came on. This happens about once out of every ten times I hit the high beams. Very dangerous. I will be taking to the dealership in fredericksburg (safford Dodge) within a week or so to have repaired.
