Hello, my 2006 Buick Lacrosse regular beam headlights keeps going out due to the wiring getting hot for some reason. No aftermarket highlights or bulbs been added. The wiring is melting completely. You can see smoke coming from the headlight assembly. I'm also experiencing my entire dash goes out while driving for 2-seconds then comes back on, I'm not sure if the wiring that's shorting out from my low beam headlights after burning is causing this issue or not since the wires begins to touch after the wire covering is burned. I contacted Buick the manufacture, and they are giving me the run around asking me questions that doesn't even pertain to the issues at hand, like when was your last oil change? this issue with the headlights is highly dangerous and can cause a fire and prevent visibility for myself and others to see me at night, plush getting a ticket from the police for having no headlights. This should become a recall issue immediately. This is a major safety issue.

The manufacturer and dealer were not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 79,000.

While driving at night, both headlights failed to illuminate. The area that I live is rural and back roads do not have street lights. While the brights were working, that also created a hazardous condition, as the brights could temporarily blind an oncoming driver, especially dangerous on narrow 2 lane roads. The car was taken to art moran Buick dealership and I paid over $300. 00 to replace headlight module. I was told that gm only covered this from date of purchase to 12 years or 150,000 miles. This happened six months past that date. The car has 98,300 miles on it as of today. This is a definite safety hazard, and NHTSA should require a full recall. I have the recall letter from gm, as well as the paid bill for the repair from the Buick dealer. However, I am not a computer genious, so tell me how I can get these documents to you.

While driving with low beam headlight setting my headlights went out. I tried to go from automatic to manual but the lights remained out. High beams continued to work as normal. A very dark night on a two lane road with opposing traffic and this very dangerous situation was unpleasant and extremely dangerous. I almost went off the side into a ditch with a drop off and trees when I could not see. This was compounded by opposing traffic and a near head on situation. The Buick dealership explained that the warranty and recall had just expired both by the date of a 2006 car and that my millage had exceeded the limits of the recall. . A head on crash or over a drop off into trees would have been tragic. I will be spreading the news about this problem that has not been corrected. I was never contacted by gm about this problem. The recall was not recognized by the Buick dealership upon my first contact telephone call. After a little research, I have found that this problem is very well known and documented in the auto industry. Recall no. 15v519000 states that the Buick owners may not be informed of an expanded warranty for this problem. The problem is not fixed and needs to be fixed before someone with a car load of children gets wiped out in a terrible accident that could have been corrected by notification by the manufacture of the auto in question. I noticed many different models are affected by this manufactures defect. I can see many law suits coming up since this is a well known problem. I will be addressing this with my senators and representatives.

The headlight driver module (hdm) failed and the headlights went out.

Both low beam headlights go out intermittently while driving.

My low beam headlights cut off and do not turn back on. It happens a couple times a day and I do not feel safe driving this vehicle. It happens while driving. It happens both in the city and on the highway.

Headlights have a mind of their own. Only high beams work. My grandson noticed a recall he called the local dealership. Was told that our VIN number was not listed. Same model as thousands of others. . He replaced headlight module and both bulbs about 70 dollars lost. This happened at night while going down road in heavy rain on 2 lane.

Low beam headlights on both sides stopped functioning. High beams still work. Verified that bulbs and/or fuses were not the problem. Same issue as NHTSA recall 15v519000 gm recall 14291. Contacted gm who claimed my particular car was not included in recall. As mentioned in previous comments, that makes no sense. If its the same problem as other recalled cars had why isn't my car also recalled? in my opinion gm needs to recall all cars with this problem or supply a valid reason why some cars are excluded from the recall.

On two occasions, the headlights stopped working while I was driving at night. Both times occurred when I was driving under 35 miles per hour and had been driving for less than five miles. The first time (February 2016), I stopped, turned the car off and back on and the lights came back on. The second time (April, 2016), I stopped, turned off the ignition and turned it back on. The lights did not come back on. I turned on the ignition and tried the high beams, and they illuminated. When I arrived at home, I tried the regular lights again, but they still failed to work. I found a recall online for this situation for the make, model, and year o f my car (#15v519000), so I contacted Buick customer service. I was told that my car did not have this recall on it. I believe that the fact that I have the same problem on the same car model, make, and year should should qualify my car for the recall for this serious safety issue.

The regular lights wiil go out while driving, day or night. Sometimes the headlights will not come at all or only one side (driver or passenger side) will come on. I have to often drive around at night using my high-beams. The problem is getting worst, as the lights will not come on for day.

Twice now, my headlights will not illuminate. The first time it rectified itself. This time it has not rectified. The problem occurred when I manually turned off the headlights. I put the car in drive and manually turned them back on and nothing happened. Running lights and high beams do function (14v755000) but I am irritating a lot of drivers with the high beams on. What can I do until this recalled part is available? I have tried to get it serviced at my gm dealer but they have no recall information. So my guess the going to charge me hourly to diagnose a problem that they probably already know about.

After starting car, while it was still dark, I put the car in reverse and the front lights stopped working. They were initially on. I immediately changed to another car for transportation. I later tested the headlights to find that the high beam headlights work, but the normal beam does not.
