Your headlights keep flickering on and off, especially the low and high beams, even though the bulbs are fine — this suggests a wiring harness that may be overheating. Additionally, your transmission is making aggressive downshifts from 6th gear that cause the car to jolt, and in severe cases prevent acceleration; the dealer attempted a repair that didn't resolve the issue.
