2005 Chevrolet Corvette Lighting Problems

I LOST THE DRIVER SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT ON MY 2005 CORVETTE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS PROBLEM CREATED THE UNSAFE CONDITION AND TRIGGERED THE HIGH BEAM WHICH OBSCURE INCOMING VEHICLE AND WAS A SAFETY RISK.

I BOUGHT A 2005 CHEVY CORVETTE CONVERTIBLE AT A DEALERSHIP IN BATON ROUGE LOUISIANA NAMED GERRY LANE CHEVROLET THEY TOLD ME EVERYTHING WORKED ON THE CAR WHEN I GOT THE CAR IN 2019 THE CAR HAD OVER 40 PROBLEMS THAT THE HEAD-UP DISPLAY DOESN'T WORK THE HEADLIGHT GOES OFF SOMETIMES COMES ON SOMETIMES THE CD PLAYER DOESN'T WORK THE NAVIGATION SCREEN DOESN'T WORK THE SPEAKERS ARE SOUNDING CRACK AND DOES TRAIN SENSOR WITHOUT THEY ONLY FIX THE CRANK SENSOR AND THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER DOESN'T WORK AND THE CONVERTIBLE TOP DOESN'T WANT TO GO UP AND DOWN SOMETIME

MY 2005 CHEVROLET CORVETTE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES LISTED IN CAMPAIGN 10V172000 ON 04/26/2010. YET WHEN I ENTER MY VIN NUMBER IT SAYS NO RECALLS. THE "SERVICE ACTIVE HANDLING SYSTEM" MESSAGE APPEARS WITH LOSS OF THE FEATURE AND LOSS OF BRAKES LIGHTS. THE BRAKES LIGHTS COME ON SPONTANEOUSLY WHILE DRIVING AND TURN OFF WHEN THE BRAKES ARE ACTUALLY APPLIED. OBVIOUSLY A DANGEROUS SITUATION. 02

WHEN THE CAR IS COMPLETELY WARMED UP AND I'M DRIVING ABOUT 10 MINUTES FURTHER. FIRST THE DAYLIGHT RUNNING LIGHTS GO OUT. THEN THE TURN SIGNALS IN FRONT DON'T WORK. THEN THE HIGH BEAMS DON'T WORK. ALL WORK WHILE THE CAR IS COLD. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MILES AN HOUR WHEN SUDDENLY THE HIGH BEAMS WENT OUT. I WAS IN A PANIC AND QUICKLY SWITCHED ON THE FOG LIGHTS. I COULD NOT GET THE HEADLIGHT TO TURN BACK ON. ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH MY LOW BEAMS. AFTER THE CAR WARMED UP THE LOW BEAMS WOULD SUDDENLY TURN OFF. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS A SAFETY RECALL ITEM AND THEY FIXED IT WITH A JUMPER CABLE.

I HAVE AN 05 CORVETTE AND MY LEFT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT DOES NOT WORK. ALL OTHER LIGHTS WORK FINE, INCLUDING THE HIGH BEAMS.

LOW BEAMS DON'T WORK BUT WHEN YOU HOLD IT BACK BRIGHT S ONLY WORK WHEN HELD BACK BUT WHEN LET LOOSE THEY GO OFF AND STILL NO LOW BEAMS.

LOW BEAM TURN OFF DRIVING AT NIGHT

WHEN I DRIVE MY CAR AT NIGHT MY LOW BEAMS STOP WORKING AFTER 25MIN OF DRIVING IT. EVERYTHING ELSE IS WORKING FINE SO I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS AND I'VE BEEN PULL OVER FOR DRIVING LIKE THAT. AFTER I PARK AND THE CAR SITS FOR FEW HOURS THE LOW BEAMS START TO WORK AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET CORVETTE. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V251000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING) THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000.

WHILE COMING HOME FROM WORK THIS EVENING (COMPLETELY DARK / 6:30PM) MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS BOTH SHUT OFF. I WAS ON A FOUR LANE ROAD COMING UP TO A TRAFFIC LIGHT THAT WAS GREEN FOR ME. I NOTICED JUST BEFORE GETTING TO THE TRAFFIC LIGHT MY HEADLIGHTS HAD SHUT OFF. I SLOWED SOME THINKING I HAD ACCIDENTALLY HIT A SWITCH OR SOMETHING AND THANK GOODNESS I SLOWED SOME. AS I APPROACHED THE LIGHT A CAR TURNED RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. I HAD TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES AND REALLY THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO HIT THE OTHER CAR. THEY OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T SEE ME SINCE I HAD NO HEADLIGHTS. WHEN I GOT HOME I CHECKED ONLINE TO SEE WHERE THE HEAD LIGHT FUSE WAS LOCATED ON MY CAR THINKING THAT'S ALL IT WAS. I FOUND OUT THROUGH ONLINE ARTICLES THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS UNDER INVESTIGATION FOR MY MODEL CORVETTE WITH OVER 100K MILES. I LET THE CAR COOL DOWN PER WHAT WAS SAID IN SOME OF THE FORUMS AND JUST WENT OUT TO CRANK MY CAR AND THE HEADLIGHTS CAME ON. THIS IS A VERY VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND GIVEN GM'S RELUCTANCE TO RECALL KNOWN DANGEROUS ISSUES WITH SOME OF THEIR VEHICLES I HOPE YOUR AGENCY WILL FORCE A RECALL ON THIS. I VERY NEARLY T-BONED ANOTHER DRIVER TONIGHT BECAUSE I FEEL THEY JUST DIDN'T SEE ME WITHOUT MY HEAD LIGHTS ON. THANK YOU. *TR

DRIVING IN THE RAIN WHEN THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING; HIGH BEAMS AND FOG LIGHTS OPERATIONAL. SAME THING HAPPENED ON 11-23-14 (EXCEPT NO RAIN). IN BOTH CASES THE LIGHTS WORKED FINE THE NEXT DAY. DEALER SAYS THERE IS A RECALL BUT THAT THEY HAVE NO PART OR GUIDANCE FROM GM. *TR

MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT WITH NO WARNING. THE INTERIOR LIGHT MONITOR ON THE DASH SHOWS THE LOW BEAMS AS WORKING. THE FOG LIGHTS AND THE HIGH BEAMS CONTINUE TO WORK. I HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY 2005 CORVETTE MY HEAD LIGHTS WILL GO OUT. SOMETIMES WHEN I START MY CAR THEY WILL NOT EVEN COME ON. I CANNOT DRIVE MY CAR AT NIGHT TIME . *TR

WHILE DRIVING HOME TONIGHT (A 20 MINUTE DRIVE)THE HEADLIGHTS TURNED OFF BY THEMSELVES. WE TRIED TURNING OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTING AND ALSO CHECKED THE FUSE, NEITHER FIXED THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THE PROBLEM HOPEFULLY THIS COMPLAINT WILL HELP IN GETTING THE PROBLEM FIXED. *TR

THE LOW-BEAM LIGHTS KEEP CUTTING-OFF WHEN THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE REACHES NORMAL TEMPERATURE. AFTER SHUTTING DOWN THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE COOLS-OFF AND THEN THE LIGHTS WILL COME BACK ON, ONLY TO AGAIN CUT-OFF WHEN THE ENGINE IS TURNED BACK ON AGAIN... *TR

THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS WON'T TURN ON AFTER CAR IS WARM - AND LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2005 CORVETTE HOME AT NIGHT AND MY LOW BEAM LIGHTS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO, BUT USE MY BRIGHT LIGHTS, WHICH WAS AN OBVIOUS HAZARD TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. THE NEXT DAY I STARTED THE CAR...MY LOW-BEAMS CAME ON AND SEEMED TO WORK. I THEN DROVE MY CAR AND AFTER ONLY A FEW MINUTES THE LIGHTS WENT OFF AGAIN. THIS INTERMITTENT PROBLEM HAS BEEN CONSISTENTLY OCCURRING. DUE TO THE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM, I CANNOT BELIEVE THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL TO DATE. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING WITH MANY OTHER 2005 CORVETTE OWNERS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN THE POURING RAIN WITH MY DAUGHTER FOLLOWING ME IN ANOTHER CAR THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. WE WERE ON PA MOUNTAIN ROADS AND I DID NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. THIS WAS THE MOST DANGEROUS SITUATION. WE WERE 4 HRS FROM HOME, I THOUGHT THE WIPERS WERE BAD AND MY VISION HAD FAILED AND THE STATE JUST DIDN'T PAINT THE LINES ON THE RD. THE SITUATION WAS SO BAD I HAD TO WAIT TILL WE FOUND THE NEXT EXIT RAMP TO PULL OVER. I LEFT THE CAR RUNNING AND NOTICED MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OFF WHILE I WAS PAYING FOR MY FOOD AND GAS. I HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH MY HIGHBEAMS ON!!! WHEN WE FINALLY GOT HOME I WAS SO SHAKEN BY THE SITUATION I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE TO FIND OUT THIS WAS NOT AND ISOLATED INCIDENT!!! RECALL THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED!!! *TR

LOW BEAM LIGHTS JUST QUIT WORKING. FUSE/RELAY IS GOOD AND IS A INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. SEEMS TO BE A HEAT RELATED ISSUE VERY UNSAFE AT NIGHT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FWY MY LIGHTS WENT OFF CHECKED THE FOLLOWING EVENING AND THEY WORKED. WHILE DRIVING AGAIN THEY SUDDENLY WENT OFF AGAIN. *TR
