THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME. MY HEADLIGHTS QUIT WORKING. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS NOT AS DARK AND I CAUGHT IT . MY HUSBAND TOOK IT TO SIMS BUICK ON ELM RD. WHERE WE PURCHASED IT. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON IT, BUT WE NEW THERE WAS. MY HUSBAND PAID FOR THE NEW MODULE AND PUT IT IN. THIS TIME IT TOOK PLACE ON TUES. MAR. 29 AND 8:30 PM IN THE DARK. I HAD 3 GIRLS I WAS TAKING HOME FROM WORK AND MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. ALMOST HIT SOMEONE ALONG THE ROAD AND THERE WAS TRAFFIC COMING AT ME. THAKFULLY THE GIRLS GUIDED ME INTO A DRIVEWAY. MY BRIGHTS WORKED TO GET ME AND THE GIRLS HOME. MY HUSBAND CHECKED AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL OR FIX. HE BOUGHT THE MODULE AND REPLACED IT HIMSELF. THANK GOD WE WERE SAFE. BUT YOU NEED TO FIGURE IT OUT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. AND MAKE SURE YOUR DEALERS GET THE INFORMATION.

NHTSA RECALL #14V755, ONE YEAR AND NOTHING DONE. LOSS MY DRIVER SIDE LOW BEAM AND REPLACED BULB, NOT SURE IF THIS WAS REALLY PROBLEM OR NOT.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN JANUARY 2015 THAT WAS DISCOVERED NOVEMBER 2014 ACCORDING TO GM RECALL INFO. IT IS GM SAFETY RECALL 14291. I CHECKED TODAY, DEC 21' 2015, AND GM INDICATED THERE IS NO REMEDY YET. THIS SEEMS LIKE AN EXCESSIVE PERIOD OF TIME. MAYBE NHTSA SHOULD INVESTIGATE

MY EXTERIOR LIGHTS WENT OUT TWICE LAST NIGHT, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE (APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH). I WAS ABLE TO PUT MY FLASHERS ON AND GET OFF EACH TIME. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES THEY WOULD COME BACK ON. I AM NOT SURE WHAT CAUSED THE ISSUE, BUT IT IS VERY CONCERNING. I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH AND APPARENTLY THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE BUICK LACROSSE.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS CAN GO OUT AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING. STARTED HAPPENING ABOUT 7/2013. WOULD ONLY DRIVE DURING DAY/ HAD MODULE REPLACED A YEAR AGO WHEN RECALL NOTICE CAME OUT AND HAD LIGHTS FOR A ABOUT 6 MONTHS WITH NO PROBLEM. WAS DRIVING GOING AROUND A CORNER A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO, LIGHTS WENT OUT AND I WENT INTO DITCH CAUSING A BAD FENDER DENT AND BREAKING MY WINDSHIELD. LIGHTS CAN COME AND GO AT ANY TIME. THANK GOD, NO ONE WAS HURT. THIS COULD BE A MAJOR PROBLEM. YOU CAN USE BRIGHTS, BUT THAT WOULD CAUSE BLINDING THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC.
