Is this a problem with the relays? Does anyone have any experience or know what might solve this?

Thanks
Can you tell me if you have the halogen or xenon headlights? If you don't know, please post the last 7-digits of the vin number and I can look it up. You can also email to kens (at) minimania.com

You can also swap headlight parts from one side to the other to narrow down the potential cause.
