Headlights Problems of Chevrolet Trailblazer - part 2

I was driving in the dark and my automatic headlights turned off. I pulled over and was able to get them back on. I got on the interstate in heavy traffic. I was driving in the middle lane with two tractor trailors to my right and traffic to my left. Suddenly it went dark. It was very scary. I got around the trucks and pulled into the emergency lane. Before I came to a complete stop they turned on and stayed on. I haven't driven in the dark a long distance until the other night. My headlights may have been turning off and on in the daylight without my knowledge. I checked and there wasn't any open recalls. Although the 2006 Chevrolet trail blazer has a recall for the same problem. Headlights turning off while driving.

The contact was not provided with a solution from the manufacturer and was uncertain of when the vehicle would be repaired. The failure mileage was not available.

While driving, my low beam headlights intermittently go off making this car unsafe to drive at night. This happened the first time Aug 20,2017 and has happened many times since and seems to be getting worse, 10-15 times in the last month. This happened the first time while sitting at a stoplight. I was close to the motel I was staying at so just drove straight there. Since then it has happened while driving in the city and on the highway in the rural area I live in. My daytime driving lights also go out in the same way.

Headlights on 2005 Trailblazer go out occasionally while vehicle is being driven. Vehicle was being driven on an interstate highway at highway speed after the vehicle had been started and driven for approximately 30 minutes.

Driving 6 people to pittsburgh International airport at 3 am 8/5/17 on the parkway to catch a flight for a vacation when noticed low beam headlights were not working. Do not know how long I was driving before this was noticed. Low beams worked the evening of 8/12/17 @ 10 pm after returning to pittsburgh airport and driving home. Low beams did not work again on the evening of 8/24/17 when driving home from a baseball game. Repairs were completed 9/1/17 by nick Chevrolet in tarentum, PA. I had asked before and after the repairs whether this would be covered under recall but was told no because my VIN number was not a part of the recall for this issue. They made it seem like this was a separate issue from the known low beam issue recall of other chevy models. I also called the gm customer service line to see if I could get reimbursed for this issue but was told the same thing; that my VIN number was not a part of the recall and it is based on what factory the car was made at? the part number used was 15016745 which upon looking on the internet is a replacement part for the other vehicles covered under the recall. I do not understand how the same issue can be part of a recall for some years and models and not others if the problem and part are the same??.

The contact had to slow down and pull the vehicle over to the shoulder to a complete stop. The contact turned the light settings knob, but nothing happened.

The low beam headlights will go out randomly when driving at night. I am able to use the high beams, which is not safe for oncoming traffic. They will eventually come back. This is a very aggravating issue! this has been occurring since early 2016.

My headlights go off while driving, but you can turn on the bright lights. I noticed a recall on 2007 Trailblazers for this condition, but entered my VIN in your site, and mine does not come up. This has happened several times while driving in the early morning or at night.

The low beam headlights keep going out. All other lights stay on and the high beam lights work. Only the low beam headlights are affected. This has happened while in motion and from a stopped position when first starting the car and putting it in drive. I have researched it on several group we sights and found that the problem is the headlight dimmer module (hdm). I have replaced this two times over the last two years which always fixes it for about a year then it starts failing again. This is a very dangerous situation because it happens after dark. I can pull over and stop, open the hood and take off the fuse box cover and remove the hdm and put it back in the socket. Sometimes this works and sometimes not. It is a dangerous situation. There have been recalls on earlier Trailblazers but not this year. It should be included.

While operating the 2007 Trailblazer, both low-beam headlights would intermittently fail. We were able to safely drive to our destination using the high-beams. Currently, both low-beam headlights have completely failed. We contacted our local Chevrolet dealership to complete recall 15v519000 but were informed our VIN was not included in the recall even though we are experiencing the exact same problems.

The headlights on my 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer work at times, and at other times do not work at all. The headlights may come on at start up, but then they stop functioning while the vehicle is being driven. So far the high beam lights and running lights have continued to work. There apparently is a recall number (14291) but when I contact gm, I am told there is not an open recall for this problem. Please help with this issue. It is dangerous as well as terrifying to be driving in the dark when the lights suddenly stop functioning.

The headlights and gauges keep dimming while driving. They will flash. The headlights will go off completely and then come back on after a minute or so. It is very dangerous when the headlights go off while driving at night. I have seen several complaints of the same trouble. The 2006 models were recalled for this problem but the 2005 models were not. Why when they have the same dangerous issues?this needs to be recalled and fixed before someone is killed by the lights going off causing a wreck. This problem has happened allot every since I purchased this Trailblazer several years ago.

Occasionally headlights go out at night while driving. I see that 2006-07 were recalled but many others with a 2005 also complained of the same issue I'm having.

When driving vehicle both left and right low beam headlights go out. The first time it happened was when I was driving long distance in the dark. Had to drive with my high beams on for the rest of the trip. There is no specific time frame, but generally it happens anywhere from 10- 30 minutes of driving. I suspect it is heat related. I have changed the headlight relay #46, bit it only fixed the problem for a week. Again the lights will go out after driving several minutes. I noticed there is a recall for a similar issue on the 2006 chevy Trailblazer. Could this be the same problem with my vehicle. There are also multiple forums explaining the same exact issue with early 2000 model Trailblazers. This issue happened approx 6 months ago. Last week we ran into another problem. Our abs light comes on periodically. Like the headlights going out, the abs light comes on after driving the vehicle for a certain amount of time anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 minutes. Again, I feel it electrical components/wiring is overheating and causing these issues. I feel there should be a safety recall for this this issue as it is affecting hundreds of customers USA wide.
