2014 GMC Sierra. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle electrical panel froze while driving. Also, the power steering locked up, the headlights did not work properly and the alarm sometimes sounded after the was removed from the ignition. Also, the engine light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer twice. However, the problem was still not resolved. There was a hesitation/lurch coming from the transmission, and an issue with the tire pressure monitoring system. The instrument panel malfunctioned on the way back from the dealer. The check engine light, illuminated sporadically. Updated 07/10/14 the consumer stated there was a steering issue, as well. The dealer was unable to replicate the problems. Updated 08/06/14.

The headlights on this vehicle are horrible. Driving on roads with no street lights is dangerous. The hi beams do nothing at all except light up tree tops.

This vehicle has the worst headlights of any new vehicle I've ever owned. It seems dangerous to drive at night, and I avoid it where I can. The beam pattern is awful and the illumination is poor. I've been driving cars with projector headlights for years, so I know that is not the real issue. These lights are just poorly designed or cheap. Trips to the dealer are unfruitful. The dealer knows they are poor, but can do nothing except be sure everything is properly adjusted. If you are looking at buying a 2014 GMC pickup, buy something else. They are that bad. I just know I'm going to hit a deer soon enough.

The headlight output at night, particularly in rural back road areas is less than adequate. Poor really. I originally had moisture issues in both headlamp housings, had both headlamp housings replaced and the lighting seemed to be better, however not very much. The headlights seem to have dark spots in them and only light up certain parts of the road in front of me, and never much to the side of the roadway. I feel this is by far the worst lighting output of any vehicle I have ever owned, and actually feel a little unsafe driving at night. I most definitely cannot travel at higher speeds during the night as I feel like I cannot see nearly good enough. I have simply "dealt" with the issue since buying the truck in December 2013, thinking there was no fix to it and the dealership said they have not heard of this issue before.

Purchased my 2014 GMC Sierra November of 2013. Currently I'm on my 9th recall notice. More importantly the lighting on my front headlights are the most unsafe lighting at night I have ever encountered. The high beams are use less. Paid $43,000 for my truck. You would think their lighting would be top notch. The bad thing about this is no one has been hurt so GMC isn't expressing any concerns about this major flaw. This should be a major recall were proper lighting is put in. Nothing will be done till someone gets into a accident or dies from injuries from lack of lighting.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra. The contact stated that while driving after dark, the front halogen headlights became dim. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the front headlights needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 700.

Purchased this vehicle July 2013. The headlights are extremely inadequate and a hazard to driving. The inadequate lighting has caused me to run off the road on more than one occasion due to the extreme curvature of the road and the lack of adequate lighting to see the curve ahead. The headlights also do not afford you time to see road hazards in the roadway. Gm needs to design a fix for this dangerous defect. The.

The original headlights are too dim when in the low beam state. High beams are slightly better. A brighter color would be a great improvement.

Worst headlight for a new vehicle. I have owned various gm trucks from 1967 to 2014. Never have I owned a truck with such worthless headlights like the projector beam headlights on my 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 with the all terrain package. The projector headlight are very dim and do not light the road more than 30 feet ahead. At highway speeds (55-70) the projector headlights are only lighting a half second ahead of you. Additionally there is no lighting to illuminate the sholder at all. . You must drive full time with the fog lamps on to have a small increase in lighting. When using the high beams there is very little effect on visibility. Extremely disapointed in the 2014 GMC Sierra. And will unlikely purchase another gm product in the future. At a msrp of over 50 grand I would expect a truck to have adequate headlight to light the road. Without the aftermarket cost to install better lighting the 2014 GMC Sierra is very unsafe to operate at night.

I purchased 2014 GMC Sierra 1500 on October 20th 2014 at this time it has 1700 miles on it. The first time of maybe 3 times that I drove the vehicle at night I was discouraged with the headlights. I could barely see the roadway and I commented to my fiance that they were terrible and that I was afraid I would hit something. I happened to look for recalls on the internet and noticed that there are many complaints regarding this issue. I am shocked that there has not been anything to correct the problem. I am hesitant to drive it at night. Something needs to be done before someone gets seriously injured.
