After I turn on my headlights they will be fine for a bit and then one will go out and sometimes the other will follow suit. It can be either if them. Sometimes I can turn the lights on and then off and it will come back on.

My right head light goes out, I have changed the bulbs too many times and the harness. My stability track comes on and I can loose power the first time I was traveling out of town on the highway, and by grace of god I was able to pull over. This car is becoming a nightmare and I think we should be given some kind of compensation...please fix these issues...this is an ongoing problem for the last 3yrs

My headlight keeps burning out. I've bought the car used a year and a half ago and I've replaced 4 headlights and had the wiring harness replaced twice. It keeps overheating and burning out.

Having issue with lowbeam headlights not operating. I have to use high beam headlights when driving at night or during rain. Had a master mechanic look at it and he said it is the headlight harness. That it tends to melt and it will cost me an arm and a leg to replace. This should not be happening and it should be on recall because this is a dangerous situation while driving at night or during rain storms having to leave my high beams on only irritates other drivers not to mention myself.

Now that its cold my truck wont start. Every morning I have to jump start it. I also notice the head lights go out well on one that is. The left one. When in idle the stability track light on dash board illuminates I know this isn't right I had that serviced already. Then the engine light comes on. The hatch back wont go up completely it will go mid stream and close back.

I have replace my low beam on the passengers side a few times in a year, this last time the wiring had melted. Because of this I had to pay a hundred dollar ticket for a light because I couldn't get it fixed in 24 hours. This is a safety issue, gm should be making this a mandatory recall....
