DRIVING AT NIGHT MY HEADLIGHTS QUIT WORKING. LIKE DOZENS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS TO NHSTA, I CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS BUT THIS VIN WAS NOT COVERED ON NHSTA ID 14V7550, GM RECALL 14291. THE REPAIR COST $80 BUT GM HAS REFUSED TO HONOR MY REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT. WHEN IS NHSTA GOING TO DO IT'S JOB AND FORCE GM TO EXPAND THE NUMBER OF VINS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. I AM SURE THERE ARE PROABALY HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF OTHER OWNERS LIKE ME. THE LOSS OF HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND SHOULD RECEIVE MUICH QUICKER ACTION FROM THE NHSTA ON THE VINS TO BE INCLUDED.

STARTED THE TRAILBLAZER AND HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON.. TRIED AUTOMATIC AND MANUAL. WE TURN THE TRAILBLAZER OFF AND ON A COUPLE TIMES AND FINALLY GOT IT TO COME ON MAUNUAL. ONE WEEK LATER WAS COMING HOME ON A 4 LANE AND MY HEALIGHTS JUST WENT OFF. LUCKEY I WAS ABLE TO GET OFF ROAD AND TURN FLASHERS ON. TURN TRAILBLAZER ON AND OFF, THE HEADLIGHTS ON AND OFF BUT THEY DIDNT COME ON . TURN AUTOMATIC LIGHTS OFF AND TURN HIGH BEAMS ON THAT IS HOW I HAD TO DRIVE HOME. I TESTED MY LOWBEAMS ON AND OFF COMING HOME. THE WOULD GO IN AND OUT.
