To whom it may concern; my problem happens to be a serious one involving the head lamps of our 2008 chevrolet cobalt. The incidents have occurred without warning and on multiple occasions. What I speak of is the lights, upon engaging only the right turn signal shut off,flicker....with no control for a period of only a few seconds. Now, the concern I have is with the potential for myself or other motorists to have serious complications. During that small period of time in which the headlamps failed, my family's life was jeopardized,which is something I should not have to,and will not tolerate. I have made attempts to correct malfunction by using chevy dealer technicians. Problem was allegedly fixed,then occurred again. Please help me with any information you might be able to provide to further aid my progress in correcting this problem before someone gets hurt.
