What owners wrote

We are having issues with the low beam head lamps. They are not safe!! We have contacted the dealer on several occasions for help, only to get a "it's not our problem" response. GM is surely aware, as a search for help with the issue pops up many complaints and possible class action law suits currently in the works.

Reported at 55,000 miles, February 2019 CrashInjury

Dim lights are not sufficient to see to drive at night. It is a very dangerous situation. We have to use the high beam in order to see anything in the road and put on dim when cars are approaching . This situation should be a recall from general motors. This has not been properly addressed. Talking with other owners the complaint is ongoing and results in costly repairs without good results.
