On three occasions, when driving at night, both headlights suddenly went out. The next day the headlights were working normally. The dealer's service department could not find anything wrong. Later, we found out there was a "Safety Recall" (#14291),but it expired one year before our car developed the problem. We have contacted the dealership and Buick, neither one will help us. They expect us to pay for the replacement of the defective part (Headlamp Driver Module).

My vehicle has been parked for the better of about two years due to head lamp failure and engine shutting off without warning at any particular time. Steps were made to fix the issue but the problem continues still to this day.

The drivers side low beam headlight keeps going out. I did look up any recalls, which there was for this, but it shows that it was fixed. We didn't have an issues for the first 9 months and have now replaced the bulb several times. I am concerned that it is happening while my daughter is driving this at night in a rural area with a lot of deer and other animals running into the roads.

The hdm failed leaving me with only high beams, have bee told they are not under recall. Shamrock service center, spent 1 and 1/2 hrs diagnosing and found no recall. Many other models have been recalled for this dangerous problem. I am retired and cannot afford this repair. What can you do for me. When I turned on the lights to go home last week, there were no lights but high beams. I thought it was just bulbs, so I took it to my local repair shop. They diagnosed the problem and I am waiting for the part to come in. I know this will be expensive as I think its around $100.00 per hr. It was in a parking lot where I discovered it. Had to drive home with the high beams.

This is the second time in one year that my headlight on the drivers side has went out. I just replaced it about 8 months ago. I know this because I was pulled over by the police. I do not drive my vehicle very much . 82000 miles and it is 10 years old. I know there has been a recall on a part for the very same reason I am notifying you. I need this fixed. These headlamps are expensive and this is unsafe to drive without proper lighting. Please advise on this matter .
