When you approach a light, turn on the heat and A/C at the same time. Make sure your high beam and low beam are both on simultaneously, put on the LEFT turn signal and hazard lights. Crank up the stereo to 100 with anything but country music and finally put on the front and back wipers and continuously spritz them with washer fluid. This should solve your problem.
I had to do all those also, however I had to blast the horn for exactly 1 minute and 2 seconds before I approached the light. Works everytime.
Doing all this is a lot cheaper than taking it to a dealer to get it fixed.
