Complaint Description: headlights on my 2001 mitsubishi eclipse keep going off when driving at night whether i hit a slight or major bump in the road. i pulled the plug from the back of the headlamps and found the actual plug and lead wires were melted, making contact. i tried to fix the problem by separating the touching wires where the insulation had melted and the headlight contacts were touching. lights still go out unpredictably. *jb .
