My headlights will go out while I'm driving in the city, in the countryside, on the highway or on residential streets, after driving for a while or even when I first start my vehicle after it had been sitting for several hours. The reason for my headlights spontaneously going out is unknown. The part that causing the problem is unknown.

The first time that I experienced this was back in january 2017. The last time that I experienced this was last night, may 4, 2017.
