Headlights Problems of Chevrolet Silverado 1500 - part 2

After driving in any type of moisture (rain, snow, sleet) the highbeam lights have condenstation covering most or all of the lens inside. This moistue will vary based on the miles driven and intensity of the snow or rain regardless if highway or city driving. It does appear worse with highway driving. Chevrolet says "this is normal and we will only replace headlight assembly if there is standing moisture. The highbeams are functioning as designed. " this moisture does inhibit the lumins or light coming from the highbeams.

My Chevrolet silverado has terrible headlights. They are not bright enough and do not light the road properly. If the low beams are adjusted higher the high beams no longer illuminate the road. The high and low beams are in a one piece assembly and cannot be adjusted independently. I live in a rural area with a high deer population and require good headlights. In my opinion the highs and lows should be independent and have much brighter bulbs.

Intensity and coverage of headlights is terrible. The high beams are dim and there is no side coverage to allow seeing the edge of the road. I went into the ditch when trying to avoid oncoming cars and nearly hit a jogger.

The factory headlights on the 2014 Chevrolet 1500 series pickup are a safety concern and hazard. The low beam setting is extremely dim and when the roads are wet or at dawn/dusk it feels that you are traveling with the parking lights on. The high beams project well, but disperse quickly. I have owned a 1987 GMC sierra, a 2000 Chevrolet 1500, and a 2002 GMC sierra all of which had perfect illumination systems. Gm outfitted the 2014 with a safety hazard. Most of my driving occurs in the arctic, which 6 months of the year is practically dark most of the day. I have almost hit 3 moose this month because I could not see the road ahead under high beam or low beam. I am upgrading my headlight assembly to the cost of $450. 00 because it is important to see on our remote roads in alaska. I love the truck in every other aspect, but the stock headlights are going to get someone killed. Thanks.

Poor headlights, won't drive the truck at night because of the poor illumination.

I only get about a month or 2 use out of headlights. I replaced my light bulbs at least 8 times in the past 12 months. I only use my truck to go to work. Its never leaves the road and they should not keep blowing like that. I have noticed quiet a few other owners complaining about the same problem. I there a recall if not you need to check in to it please I cant afford to keep purchasing bulbs thank you zane.

Fleet user of the 1500 chevy pickup trucks. Issue reported, head light out. Diagnoses showed burnt wires on the head light plug to bulb connecter. Repair preformed was to replace the harness on both left and right head lights to correct a melting plug connecter. Most time its is one headlight affected at a time, but the loss of both head lights is seen.

The contact owns a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that the passenger side low beam headlight failed numerous times. The local mechanic replaced the low beam bulb and module numerous times; however, the failure was not corrected. The low beam bulb and module continued to fail. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised that the vehicle was not included in the manufacturer headlight recall. The NHTSA campaign number was unknown. The approximate failure mileage was 62,000.

When driving headlights flicker constantly. Notified dealer August 2010. Dealer stated they have had complaints, but find no problem. This occurs no matter what speed you are driving.

I purchased this vehicle new from classic Chevrolet in grapevine, TX in January 2010. The first few months I had the vehicle, I had no problems. Starting in March 2010 I noticed that my radio(navigation system) would sound like it would short out intermittently. I didn't really think anything of it. I thought that it had to be the radio station or interference with other wireless signals. I never really thought it would become a problem until recently. On 5/5/2012, I was traveling 70mph at night down the highway when, all of a sudden, my entire electrical system seemed like it was "resetting" itself multiple times. From door locks to instrument cluster, to navigation system, to even headlights, everything cycled more than 3 or 4 times in rapid succession. I was merely driving down the road, I hadn't just touched anything, I was just cruising along. After doing some research online, it is apparent that this is a common issue among this design of the silverado. Forum after forum has owners describing this same issue and more problems with the electrical system. It is a major safety concern that could end up killing someone. Headlights and running lights that turn off without cause? what if the airbag system is affected and it causes a premature airbag deployment while someone is traveling at a high rate of speed? this is not and isolated issue and the government needs to step in to force general motors to recall this vehicle along with any other vehicles with the same issue. It is my understanding that general motors may be aware of the issue because the 2011 and 2012 silverados have had design changes made to their electrical systems. (I read this in forums as well. ).

The contact owns a 2004 Chevrolet 1500 truck 4wd. The contact stated the headlights failed to operate on the vehicle. He took his vehicle to the dealer and they did something to fix the module at a cost of 450. Oo dollars. The contact stated that the repair fixed the problem for a while but now the failure is occurring again. The failure mileage 65,000 miles and the current mileage is 70,000.

I own a 2000 Chevrolet silverado 1/2 ton pickup. The driver's side running front running light of the vehicle does not illuminate and has not worked consistently for two and half years. I have spoken to other owners of the same year Chevrolet pickup vehicle and they complain of the same problem.
