IN EARLY DECEMBER 2014, THE LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING PERMANENTLY. REPLACING THE HDM MODULE DOES NO RECTIFY THE SITUATION AND THE FUSES AND LAMPS ARE IN GOOD WORKING CONDITION. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING 7 MONTHS WITH HIGH-BEAMS ONLY, WHICH ENDANGERS OTHER DRIVERS AND PUTS ME AT RISK OF HEAD-ON COLLISION. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE INDICATED THEIR CARS HAVE BURNED BECAUSE OF THIS SITUATION. I FIRST NOTICED GM'S PUBLIC ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF THE DEFECT IN DECEMBER, BUT NEARLY 7 MONTHS LATER, THEY HAVE NEITHER NOTIFIED ME NOR ANNOUNCED A WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. MY DEALERSHIP HAS NO REMEDY TO OFFER. IN ONE WEEK MY STATE INSPECTION EXPIRES. AFTER THAT I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR OR SELL IT.

I WAS DRIVING BACK FROM GEORGIA AT 4:30 AM PITCH DARK AND MY HEADLAMPS CUT OFF. I WAS NEXT TO A SEMI AND ALMOST CRASHED INTO HIM. I HAD TO USE MY BRIGHTS BUT COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO KEEP THEM ON SO I HAD TO KEEP FLASHING THEM TO SEE. SINCE THEN I'VE HAD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT TONIGHT ON MAY 23, 2015 AT 9 PM AND MY LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON AT ALL NOW. THE ONLY WAY TO GET HOME ONCE AGAIN WAS TO DRIVE WITH MY BRIGHTS ON. I HAD MY BROTHER TEST THE LIGHTS AND THEY COME ON AND CUT OFF RANDOMLY AT WILL. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND THEY SHOULD BE RECALLED.
