I STARTED RECEIVING WARNING LIGHTS THAT THERE WERE BURNED OUT BULBS AROUND THE CAR. IT STARTED WITH THE RIGHT FRONT HIGH BEAM, THEN LOW BEAM. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE SAME DAY AS THERE WAS A SAFETY CONCERN WITH AN OUT HEADLIGHT. ON MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP THE WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF AND I WENT HOME. BY THE END OF THE NEXT DAY AND I STARTED TO RECEIVING THE SAME WARNING, RIGHT FRONT HIGH AND LOW BEAM. THE WARNING WOULD GO AWAY IF I CYCLED THE LIGHTS ON AND OFF AND THE HIGH AND LOW BEAM WOULD COME BACK ON. I SCHEDULED ANOTHER APPOINTMENT WITH VW TO HAVE THEM CHECK THINGS OUT AND WAS TOLD THAT IT COULD BE A PROBLEM THAT THEY HAD FIXED THE WEEK BEFORE ON THE SAME CAR, A MELTED FUSE BOX RELAY. ON MY WAY TO THE DEALER, ALL OF MY BRAKE LIGHTS AND TURN SIGNALS WENT OUT AND SURE ENOUGH IT WAS THE MELTED RELAY. VW REFUSED TO STAND BEHIND THE REPAIR AND SAID THEY WOULD CONTACT ME IF THERE WAS A RECALL. *TR UPDATED 9/19/13 *CN UPDATED 09/27/2013 *JS
