While driving at night my headlights stopped working and then turned back on, this morning as I left for work the headlights did not come on at all, the brights only worked if I held the bar back as it would not stay on by clicking it. After reading all of the problems with this there needs to be a recall on this serious problem. What can be done to make sure this gets taken care of?.
Driving in the dark with high beams on, the headlights went out completely, had to activate low beams to get lights back on. This is happening frequently.
Turn brights on and radio/clock light goes off. No headlights on during day driving, radio/clock light randomly goes on and back off. Head lights briefly gone off during night driving 3 different times only for maybe 5 seconds, but it only takes a second for a deer or object to appear at night or a car ahead braking suddenly. Speedometer back light does not illuminate for night driving. Trac off and anti lock warning lights continuously stay on, I have had my brakes replaced throughout the years of owning the car since October 2007 and the warning lights do not reset themselves as they should, they continuously stay on since 2009. I am tired of dealing with all of these electrical and lightening issues with this car. I have tried to find gm recall for these problems. Please tell me where and how I can have these defects fixed.
Headlights went out approx. 4 times over a 30 min period. This is the second time this has happened. The first time they went out once for about 15 seconds. This time they were out long enough for me to have to pull off the road.
While driving, the headlights would shut off without warning intermittently. The dealership was notified, but did not resolve the problem. The cause was not determined. The dealership replaced the mulitfunction switch. They did not find the problem, however they replaced the switch as a possible cause of the problem.
