I purchased this vehicle 2 weeks ago never been happier. My complaint is about my headlights they have serious condensation in both and there is about an inch or 2 of water inside the headlights. This issue is causing bad visibility with low lighting. I have tried everything to keep the water out and provide headlights with proper air so this doesn't happen. How come Chevrolet didn't recall these headlights due to poor design and improper ventilation. What can I do besides spend $200. 00 on 2 new ones?.

The headlights are so dim that I can drive with the high beams on and on coming vehicles ever flash their headlights high beam are as bright as the low beams should be. This is extremely dangerous with this poor lighting. There needs to be a recall, checking the internet there have been other complaints file with NHTSA.

2013 Chevrolet Impala. Consumer writes in regards to poor performance of vehicle. The consumer stated the left front side low beam was not lighting. The bulb was replaced.

The headlights on my Impala have some sort of discoloration inside the headlight assembly it's beginning to block the amount of lumens coming through for my lights to see. I'm certain this is a safety concern because they were designed to put out a certain number of lumens for night driving and now they aren't.

My low beam headlights quit working.

Headlights do not illuminate the road properly at night time, especially at dusk. The reflector inside the housing does not have sufficient reflectability to produce the appropriate beam. The housing relies solely on the bulb to produce sufficient lighting. I have tried several halogen bulbs and led bulbs to see better at night while driving and not one bulb vs. Another makes much difference. The housing is just not designed to produce a realistic beam of light for safe travel down the roadway. The peripherals are okay, but even the use of the high beam function does not supply adequate lighting down the roadway to see any better.

2012 Impala the passenger side lowbeam headlight keeps going out, after replacing the bulb it goes out again instantly. Some kind of electrical issue I'm guessing. Can be dangerous and getting pulled over for it by the police is not fun.

The driver's side low beam headlight burns out after a short period of time (within a few days up to less than a week). I have replaced the bulb multiple times within a short period. Also, replaced the wire harness and it still burns out the bulb.

Hello, I am requesting to investigate the design of headlights in Chevrolet Impala 2016 v6 lt. The design of headlights and its housing for this car never provide clear side views of the road in front of the car. Currently, the focus of both the headlights (when turned on) stays in the middle of the road ahead which makes the side view of the road ahead of the car unclear. Both the headlights' focuses merge at the centre of the road ahead. It makes to take a turn very difficult at night. I have tried putting halogen, hids, led bulbs into my car's headlight but none of the bulbs could provide the clear view. I had taken the car to a local Chevrolet dealer recently and the technician said that housing of the bulbs are designed such way that car will never give a clear view of both sides of the road ahead. I have recently visited a local Chevrolet dealer to check if the similar issue exists in newer vehicles, dealership confirmed that design of the headlights and their housing is the same and has changed in last few years. I have attached a photo of my car from inside when I was driving at night. In this photo, you can see the headlights does =n't give any clear view of the side roads/pathways in front of the car. Even though I had put the 6000 lumen led bulbs in my car which originally had halogen bulbs factory installed and are less bright than the led bulbs. I want to have a safety inspection of cars of this particular make and model and its headlight design. Thanks and regards, madhur.

Headlights shine only halfway up the windshield and cover only a few car lengths ahead. No visibi. Ity at all to the sides. Cannot see when making turns. Vehicle was moving on rural roads and state highway.

Hid headlights are very poor, returned to dealer numerous times, was told they are working as intended. While driving at night changing from low to high beam can't tell any difference!.

Poor front low beam headlights light up the road only showing the bottom 40% of the windshield and poor lighting to the side of the road. The top 60% of the windshield as you look forward is dark the headlights only show 3 possible 4 car lengths in front of the car. At 60 mph you should be able to see farther than over 6 car lengths ahead on low beams not 3 and not over 1/2 your visibility in the dark very unsafe.

When starting from a stop the car jerks as if the transmission is trying to catch up and it feels like you've been hit from behind. It's an on and off problem but it happens in the rain and is dangerous the dealer changed the trans oil and it still does it. Next the car goes into "reduced engine power" and "service stabilitrak" while driving and will not let me finish my highway drive safely, no one at the dealer can help with this except to say it will cast a lot of money to fix. Headlights constantly burn out and I bought expensive lights last time and one is already burnt out. I have only 1 payment left and the car is ready for the junkyard, you would think after $28000. 00 it would last a little longer. What happened to gm??.

The headlights no longer work. High beams and low beams both work, but the regular headlights are no longer in service under any circumstance. Now, the low beams go on when the headlights used to go on. When I drive at night, I am forced to keep on the high beams. This has been the case for the last 2 weeks. It never had a problem like this before. It started right around the time the vehicle reached 150,000 miles driven.
