Low beam headlights intermittently go out. Work ok one minute, then go dark. Very dangerous. Known issue under GM recall # 14291. The national highway traffic safety administration campaign ID number 15V-519. Problem has been confirmed by West-Herr Dodge in Rochester NY. Per info I have found this does not appear to have been permanently fixed by GM. As such the repair should be done at no charge going forward.

HIGH BEAM HEADLAMPS ARE NOT AFFECTED. GM REFUSES TO INCLUDE THIS VIN IN IT'S RECALL OF BUICK LACROSSE VEHICLES FOR THIS ITEM BUT INCLUDES OTHERS OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL. THE REPLACEMENT PART AVAILABLE TO THE CONSUMER ONLY REPAIRS THIS ISSUE FOR A SHORT TIME. BUICK IS REQUIRING ME TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR OF SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED ON OTHER AUTOMOBILES OF THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL BY TAKING IT TO A DEALER WHERE THE NEW PART IS ONLY AVAILABLE. THE DEALERSHIP IS QUITE EXPENSIVE COMPARE TO MY REGULAR AUTO REPAIR PLACE. I FEEL THAT THE BUICK COMPANY IS ACTING INAPPROPRIATELY IN ONLY COVERING SPECIFIC VIN NUMBERS OF LACROSSE FROM 2006.'

HELLO, MY 2006 BUICK LACROSSE REGULAR BEAM HEADLIGHTS KEEPS GOING OUT DUE TO THE WIRING GETTING HOT FOR SOME REASON. NO AFTERMARKET HIGHLIGHTS OR BULBS BEEN ADDED. THE WIRING IS MELTING COMPLETELY. YOU CAN SEE SMOKE COMING FROM THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. I'M ALSO EXPERIENCING MY ENTIRE DASH GOES OUT WHILE DRIVING FOR 2-SECONDS THEN COMES BACK ON, I'M NOT SURE IF THE WIRING THAT'S SHORTING OUT FROM MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS AFTER BURNING IS CAUSING THIS ISSUE OR NOT SINCE THE WIRES BEGINS TO TOUCH AFTER THE WIRE COVERING IS BURNED. I CONTACTED BUICK THE MANUFACTURE, AND THEY ARE GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND ASKING ME QUESTIONS THAT DOESN'T EVEN PERTAIN TO THE ISSUES AT HAND, LIKE WHEN WAS YOUR LAST OIL CHANGE? THIS ISSUE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE A FIRE AND PREVENT VISIBILITY FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS TO SEE ME AT NIGHT, PLUSH GETTING A TICKET FROM THE POLICE FOR HAVING NO HEADLIGHTS. THIS SHOULD BECOME A RECALL ISSUE IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING, THE LOW BEAMS WILL RANDOMLY TURN OFF. THIS IS NOT PROVOKED BY BUMPS OF ANY KIND, THEY JUST TURN OFF DURING RANDOM TIMES. THEY HAVE TURNED OFF ON HIGHWAYS, ON A CITY STREET, AT A STOPLIGHT, THERE IS NO CONNECTION TO THE TIMES IT STOPS WORKING. THE HIGH BEAMS CONTINUE TO WORK, AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES THE LOW BEAMS START TO WORK AGAIN. THIS BECOMES PROBLEMATIC DURING NIGHT DRIVING, ESPECIALLY IN TOWNS, WHEN IT IS RAINING, AND WHEN IT IS FOGGY.

Mileage: 135,000

EVERY TIME I GET IN THE CAR THE LIGHTS WON'T STAY ON. I CHANGE THE BULBS AND IT STILL DOING THE SAME THING. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IGNITION IS ACTING UP TO.

THE HEADLAMPS ARE DEVELOPING A FILM (COMMON W VEHICLES OF THIS ERA TO PRESENT) OF WHICH CANNOT BE ERASED EVEN WITH SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS ( SUCH AS CERTAIN HOUSEHOLD COMPOUNDS- TOOTHPASTE, FURNITURE POLISH, ETC.) I CONSIDER THIS A SEVERE SAFETY DEFECT IN MANUFACTURING DESIGN. THE CAR COMPANIES SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR DESIGNING BASIC AUTO SAFETY ELEMENTS THAT ENDURE THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.

BOTH LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING AT THE SAME TIME WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED. LIGHT SWITCH WAS IN "AUTO" POSITION. SWITCHING TO MANUAL POSITION - LOW BEAM LIGHTS STILL WON'T OPERATE. HIGH BEAM AND MARKER LIGHTS WORK AS THEY SHOULD. RESEARCHING CAUSE I FOUND A NHTSA RECALL NO.15V519000 (GM NO.14291) FOR A FAULTY HEADLAMP DRIVER MODULE (HDM) WHICH ADRESSED THE ISSUE. REACHED OUT TO BUICK AND WAS TOLD THE MODULE FOR THIS VEHICLE HAD ALREADY BEEN REPLACED IN 2016 (ORIGINAL OWNER), ISSUE CLOSED. I APPEALED THAT IF THE CORRECTIVE HDM FAILED AGAIN THEN THE SAME SAFETY ISSUE EXISTS AND THEY SHOULD REPLACE THE PART AT FAULT AS MANY TIMES AS NECESSARY OR MODIFY THE MODULE NOT TO FAIL CONTINUOUSLY. WHAT IS THE POLICY IF A RECALL FIX IS REPLACING WITH A FAULTY PART? THANK YOU.

Mileage: 60,000

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, BOTH HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE AREA THAT I LIVE IS RURAL AND BACK ROADS DO NOT HAVE STREET LIGHTS. WHILE THE BRIGHTS WERE WORKING, THAT ALSO CREATED A HAZARDOUS CONDITION, AS THE BRIGHTS COULD TEMPORARILY BLIND AN ONCOMING DRIVER, ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS ON NARROW 2 LANE ROADS. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO ART MORAN BUICK DEALERSHIP AND I PAID OVER $300.00 TO REPLACE HEADLIGHT MODULE. I WAS TOLD THAT GM ONLY COVERED THIS FROM DATE OF PURCHASE TO 12 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES. THIS HAPPENED SIX MONTHS PAST THAT DATE. THE CAR HAS 98,300 MILES ON IT AS OF TODAY. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD, AND NHTSA SHOULD REQUIRE A FULL RECALL. I HAVE THE RECALL LETTER FROM GM, AS WELL AS THE PAID BILL FOR THE REPAIR FROM THE BUICK DEALER. HOWEVER, I AM NOT A COMPUTER GENIOUS, SO TELL ME HOW I CAN GET THESE DOCUMENTS TO YOU.

WHEN I AM DRIVING SOMETIMES THE AUTOMATIC LIGHTS SHUT OFF AND THE ONLY LIGHTS THAT WILL WORK ARE MY BRIGHT LIGHTS. CAN HAPPEN ANYTIME OF THE DAY.

WHILE DRIVING WITH LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT SETTING MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. I TRIED TO GO FROM AUTOMATIC TO MANUAL BUT THE LIGHTS REMAINED OUT. HIGH BEAMS CONTINUED TO WORK AS NORMAL. A VERY DARK NIGHT ON A TWO LANE ROAD WITH OPPOSING TRAFFIC AND THIS VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WAS UNPLEASANT AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I ALMOST WENT OFF THE SIDE INTO A DITCH WITH A DROP OFF AND TREES WHEN I COULD NOT SEE. THIS WAS COMPOUNDED BY OPPOSING TRAFFIC AND A NEAR HEAD ON SITUATION. THE BUICK DEALERSHIP EXPLAINED THAT THE WARRANTY AND RECALL HAD JUST EXPIRED BOTH BY THE DATE OF A 2006 CAR AND THAT MY MILLAGE HAD EXCEEDED THE LIMITS OF THE RECALL.. A HEAD ON CRASH OR OVER A DROP OFF INTO TREES WOULD HAVE BEEN TRAGIC. I WILL BE SPREADING THE NEWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM THAT HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. I WAS NEVER CONTACTED BY GM ABOUT THIS PROBLEM.THE RECALL WAS NOT RECOGNIZED BY THE BUICK DEALERSHIP UPON MY FIRST CONTACT TELEPHONE CALL. AFTER A LITTLE RESEARCH, I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS PROBLEM IS VERY WELL KNOWN AND DOCUMENTED IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY. RECALL NO. 15V519000 STATES THAT THE BUICK OWNERS MAY NOT BE INFORMED OF AN EXPANDED WARRANTY FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE WITH A CAR LOAD OF CHILDREN GETS WIPED OUT IN A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT THAT COULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED BY NOTIFICATION BY THE MANUFACTURE OF THE AUTO IN QUESTION. I NOTICED MANY DIFFERENT MODELS ARE AFFECTED BY THIS MANUFACTURES DEFECT. I CAN SEE MANY LAW SUITS COMING UP SINCE THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM. I WILL BE ADDRESSING THIS WITH MY SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES.

OUR HEADLIGHTS/DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS JUST QUIT WORKING AS WE WERE DRIVING. WE WERE ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER AND USE THE HIGH BEAMS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR NOW.

WE WERE EXCITED TO FIND OUT THAT THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN RECALLED ON OUR MAKE AND MODEL AND YEAR UNTIL WE LATER FOUND OUT THAT OUR VIN NUMBER WAS NOT AFFECTED. I FIND HIS IS VERY STRANGE!!! IT SURE SEEMS LIKE IT WAS AFFECTED TO ME!!! I CALLED GM RECALL HELP LINE AND THERE IS APPARENTLY NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THIS. I WOULD THINK SAFETY WOULD BE A CONCERN FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS. I WOULD ALSO THINK YOU WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF OTHER VEHICLES WERE AFFECTED. I WOULD LIKE FURTHER RESEARCH ON ADDITIONAL VEHICLES AS IT IS OBVIOUS THAT OTHER VEHICLES HAVE BEEN AFFECTED.
