Headlights problems of the 2010 GMC Acadia

I noticed both of my driving lights had gone out and went to replace. They are the hid headlight assemblies and the driving light sockets and bulbs melted together resulting in cracking that reflector/projection in the assembly. My VIN is not the "VIN specific" included in the special recall 14283, but I have that exact issue.

The drivers and passengers headlights keep burning out. I have replaced the drivers side 3 times and the passenger side 2 times in the last 6 months. This is very dangerous as this is a family car and this has happened while driving down the road.

I own a 2010 GMC Acadia. . . I've had to replace the low beams on both passenger and driver side numerous times!!!!!!!! I'm a single mother of 3. . . Not only is it extremely dangerous for your headlights to go out at any given moment(especially when my children are in the vehicle. . . Not to mention other motorists children) but its also costly!!!!! this all started back in Aug 2018. . . This is getting ridiculous!!! I've done my dues. . . Worked hard to pay my vehicle off. . . All I wanted was a good and reliable vehicle for my family. . . And it's far from safe!!!!.

Tl the contact owns a 2010 GMC Acadia. The contact stated that the headlight melted and left a hole in the lamp. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who replaced the headlight assembly, but the failure recurred. The contact called victory Chevrolet Buick at 734-245-2569 (located at 1250 dexter st, milan, mi 48160) and was informed that there was no recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and also stated that there was no recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

We have a 2010 GMC Acadia that has had multiple low beam headlights going out. The whole headlight assembly has been an issue as per many complaints in various forums online. GMC knows they have issues with the power to these units and will not do anything to replace. I have replaced seven low beams in total between both lights. These can go out and come back on at various times also giving the drivers a false sense of security. I have included word doc of online communication today after removal of personal information with GMC and the only solution is at a local service GMC level. The ending comment speaks volumes that if GMC sees enough complaints they will then consider a recall. Being a fire chief I believe this is totally unacceptable due to the possible loss of headlamps. The other note was my mileage was to high as my vehicle was just over 100,000 miles. This issue was taking place for the last few years. They need to do a recall on all of these headlight assemblies. I have dated this issue today even though the last time this issue started was about 4 months ago.

The contact owns a 2010 GMC Acadia. While driving 30 mph, the contact smelled smoke. The bulb overheated and caused the socket and wires to burn and the headlight housing to melt. The contact mentioned that the vehicle was previously repaired under a manufacturer's recall for a related failure in 2013. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the bulb overheated and caused the socket, the wires, and the headlight housing unit to burn. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 65,279.

Tl-the contact owns a 2010 GMC Acadia. The contact stated that the drivers side headlight assembly fractured. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. After diagnosis they advised her that the assembly fractured. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure and current mileages was approximately 60,000. The VIN was unavailable. Tb.

Noticed drivers side daytime running light was out on GMC Acadia 2010. Husband went to replace bulb and discovered housing had completely melted( headlight still worked), he then decided to check passenger light that still worked and it is melted too! this has to be dangerous. I am contacting GMC to see what they can do. This should definitely be a recall.

My headlights on my 2010 GMC Acadia go out numerous times a year. Typically one headlight will burn out and a few days later the other headlight burns out. We replace the headlight usually but this time we went to replace the build and the new bulb wouldn't work. This is getting extremely costly to replace he bulbs a few times a year and. Is we might have an even bigger problem with the new bulb not working at all. When the headlights stop working sometimes they will come back on then go off again then come back on and then eventually burn the bulb. Typically all this happens when the car is just started. . I bought this car new and we've had nothing but problems with it. It's in he shop getrjfn fixed a few times a year.

Low beam headlight bulb continues to overheat, blow out and melt housing unit around bulb. GMC states it is my responsibilty to replace it because now my vehicle is out of warranty, even when my vehicle was in warranty when this started. Estimated cost $915. I have had the headlight bulbs replaced at least 3 times within 6-7 months. I have had to pay for the bulb and "labor" which could run as high as $50 a hour.

Drivers side and passengers front headlights, these lights I have replaced multiple times even getting a ticket for 1 instance this is a safety related issue that needs to be fixed by gm.

My drivers side headlight went out, I originally thought it was due to bulb life. When I changed the bulb I found that the harness socket where the bulb plugs into was burnt/melted. I proceeded to change the bulb anyway to see the result. 5 minutes later the light bulb burnt out again. This looks to be a serious fire hazard and I believe there should be a recall completed for further investigation. This was for the low beam light bulb.

While driving my 2009 GMC Acadia the passenger low beam went out. Upon opening the hood when I stopped I noticed the distinct odor of burnt plastic. Upon further evaluation while removing the bulb I observed that the insulation for the wiring harness had melted off and shorted at the interface between the wire and connector. The contact for the bulb also exhibited charring at the connector contact. An internet search for a replacement bulb alerted me that there is a service bulletin (09-08-42-004) addressing the replacement of this harness should the headlight fail. I feel this is a oem design flaw and safety issue since the harness can short out to the point to where the insulation is melted completely off exposing bare wires.
