Filed Jun 6, 2017 · Lights · 116,650 miles · CA

For model year 2006 and 2007 in the USA there is no side indicators to let other drivers know your gonna make a turn. In japan there was/is fender indicators not sure if they function as signal indicators however were removed or not included in the USA release. I was almost blind sided on the freeway a few days ago cause the driver to my right didn't/couldn't see my signal indicators. Other drivers have to be directly behind or directly in front to see the turn indicators. For model year 2008 to 2011 identical body and style only with the addition of turn signal lights on the rear view mirrors that have a full 180 degree visibility.

I'm having serious problems with my headlights going out intermittently while driving. About 5 minutes after I turn them on, usually my passenger headlight goes out first, then about five to ten minutes later, the driver headlight light goes out. It's strange, sometimes only one goes out, and other times they both go out. The problem is, it becomes a serious safety issue when they go out, because most times I am completely unaware until someone on the road gets my attention and tells me, or I'm constantly turning my headlights off and on, (which seems to be the temporary fix). The problem with that though is I'm constantly flashing the car in front of me turning my lights of and on. Clearly there is an electrical issue here, some kind of short or something, especially when every single day I see other vehicles on the road, just like mine, having the same issue...driving around with one light on and one light off. It's ridiculous. It's dangerous! I commute 2 hours (round trip) everyday on the highway for work and my child's school, and it's dark in the morning when we leave home and dark in the evening on our way home. It's extremely dangerous, especially on fog days and rainy days like today. This issue needs to be recalled. Enough is enough!

When I was driving at night, all of a sudden driver side headlight (low beam) turned off and I was driving with one light all alone. I tried switching on and off but still didn't resolved. Next day morning both lights were glowing but the driver side light went off after 10-15 min. Then I turned off and on, it came back. Not sure whether its a faulty light bulb or something else.

I drive a 2006 lexus gs300 that is having a problem with the exterior headlight randomly turning off while I am driving. This can be very dangerous and I have already received one ticket for this. I see there are many other people on here complaining about the exact same problem and I don't understand why an investigation has not been opened. This exact same problem happened to what im assuming was my other side, about a year ago. It was very expensive to fix, I think it cost me about $1500 at the lexus dealership. I definitely cant afford to pay that right now and not to mention I already got a ticket for this. I have been trying not to drive my car at night but it is very inconvenient. Are there any alternative methods I could use as a temporary fix until I can get this fixed?

As I was driving one evening both headlights turned off alone. I turned the knob off and on and they restarted, but now continue to turn off intermittently. Sometimes one sometimes both after different amounts of time. I have had the bulbs replaced but the problem still persists.

I own a 2006 lexus gs300 with currently 87,000 miles and for the past 2 months, the headlights seem to turn itself off while driving. . Most times it happens on passenger ! I have to turn the light switch off and on for it to work again (for another few minutes and it would turn itself off again).

Since my vehicle has reached 80,000 miles one of my headlights would automatically turn off itself when I am driving. This happens very often. It would be either left or right that will go off or sometimes both at the same time. I would have to turn it off and turn it on again and both will work fine. I constantly have to do this every time I have my headlights on. This is very frustrating and dangerous when I have my kids in the car.

Driver side headlight goes out shortly after being turned on.!!!.....sometimes if I turn the lights off and back on, they work. I was told by the dealership that my bulb needs to be replaced (cost $280) but I thought if the bulb was blown it would not come on at all. After googling the subject, I found that there are lots of other concerned lexus owners complaining about the same problem. At first I thought I needed to replace the bulb. The bulbs are fine. This is very very dangerous in a rural area where there are very little street lighting. Dealer won't do anything. This issue keeps occurring. After careful review, it was nice to know that I am not the only one, but at the same time it is unsettling to see that so many other people are having the same problem.
