Headlights work sometimes, sometimes they don't. They go from off, to on, to off as you drive the vehicle.

The headlight housing assemblies have the coating peeling, and the lense has a haze. This is pronounced thruout every 1999 and 2000 intrepid I have inspected. This reduces the visibility greatly I have almost hit a pedestrian when turning a corner due to reduced output of the lights. The lenses are no longer a clear plastic, but are a white fog. The headlights are experiencing delamination.
