I was traveling at 9:30 pm when the headlights went out for about 45 seconds and then came back on. Traveled about a mile, when they went out again, can on, then started rapidly flashing. I pulled over and it about a minute before they returned to normal. This happened three times that night before I arrived home. These headlight problem has happened five times since the first occurrence. I rarely drive at night...updated 06/26/14

While driving at night all lights on and in the vehicle went out. The dealer replaced the switch which worked for two months when the sameting happened. Fortunately I was able to stop the vehicle both time before running off the road.
