2014 Gmc Sierra 1500 Lights Problems

Your headlights are dim, making it harder to see the road at night. You're also noticing your engine is burning through oil quickly and smoke is coming from the exhaust pipe on and off. The dealer gave you an estimate to replace the headlights, but the vehicle hasn't been repaired yet. Fixing this will likely involve replacing the headlight bulbs or headlight assemblies, and investigating the engine for oil leaks or internal wear.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that while her husband was driving at various speeds, the front headlights failed to function as intended. The contact stated that the headlights were dim and foggy. The failure limited the driver's visibility, preventing the driver from safely operating the vehicle. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure recurred, and the contact was no longer driving the vehicle at night due to the safety concern. The failure mileage was unknown.

The headlights are dangerously dim, can't drive the vehicle comfortably at night. There seems to be no solution for fixing them. A TSB has been issued concerning this, but does little to address fixing the problem.

Both headlamps stopped working when driving at night. Neither the low or high beams will work

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated while driving 50 MPH, the passenger’s side headlight became inoperable. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights flashed on the instrument panel. The contact pulled over to inspect the vehicle and discovered that the water pump had failed. Despite the failure, the contact managed to drive the vehicle home. The next day upon starting the vehicle, the check engine warning light illuminated and both engine fans began to run at full capacity. The contact called the dealer and made an appointment for a diagnostic test. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 160,000.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that the headlamps were extremely dim while driving at night, making it difficult to see the roadway. The dealer was made aware of the failure and stated that there was no fix for the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 54,468.

The contact owns a 2014 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that while driving at an undetermined speed, the low-beam and high-beam head lights became inoperable. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact called the local dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000. The VIN was not available.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY PICK-UP ARE ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH. I HAVE EVEN GONE TO THE EXPENSE OF HAVING BRAND NEW ONES INTALLED AND THEY ARE NO DIFFERENT IN THE LIGHTING. I CAN BARELY SEE ONE CAR LENGTH AHEAD OF ME WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, WHICH IS PROHIBITING ME FROM USING MY PICK-UP FOR NIGHT TIME DRIVING. THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO HAVE SPENT SUCH A LARGE SUM OF MONEY FOR A VEHICLE AND NOT BE ABLE TO SEE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THERE SHOULD BE A MANDATORY RECALL OF THIS VEHICLE AND THE HEADLIGHT SYSTEM.

HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT OUT IN RAINY CONDITIONS CAUSING A HUGE SAFETY PROBLEM WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. CAN BARELY SEE WHEN MAKING LEFT OR RIGHT HAND TURNS AS WELL CAUSING A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AT NIGHT WITH PEDESTRIANS ARE IN A DARK CROSSWALK.

THE REVERSE LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING WHICH IS AFFECTING THE REAR CAMERA AS WELL.

POOR HEAD LIGHTS DOESN'T SHOW THE ROAD VERY POOR LIGHTING READ WHERE WAS OTHER COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS. *TR

HEADLIGHTS IS SO DIM NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IT SEEN WHERE LOTS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING SAME ISSUES AND GM NEED TO DO SOMETHING TO MAKE ALL THERE 14 AND 15 BETTER THEY FIXED IT IN THE 16 TRUCKS I HAVE TRIED TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL AND SEEN SOMETHING ABOUT A FIX BUT SAY IT DIDN'T HELP SO HOPEFULLY CAN GET SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THIS JUST BOUGHT THE TRUCK AND HATE IT BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE THANKS [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS ARE DOWN RIGHT DANGEROUS AT NIGHTTIME TO THE POINT IT'S NOT EVEN SAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT SEE WHERE YOUR GOING,ESPECIALLY ON HILLY TERRAIN AND CURVY WINDING ROADS. THE TIME YOU REACT YOU WILL BE OFF THE ROAD RESULTING IN A CRASH, BRINGING INJURY OR DEATH TO ONESELF OR ANOTHER OCCUPANT ON THE ROADWAY. LIGHTS OR WAY TO WEAK AND NOT LOCATED IN THE RIGHT SPOT ON TRUCK MAKING HALF YOUR VIEW IN COMPLETE DARKNESS WHEN GOING UP AND DOWN ON HILLY TERRAIN. FOR THE LIFE OF ME CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE IN THE DAY AND AGE WE LIFE IN. PLEASE GET THIS RECALLED AND SAFE PEOPLE'S LIFE. ACCIDENTS MAY HAPPEN AND SOMEONE MIGHT GO OFF THE ROAD AND GET KILLED AND NO ONE WILL KNOW WHY THEY WENT OFF THE ROADWAY JUST THINKING MAYBE THEY FEEL ASLEEP AND THE REAL RESULT WAS IMPROPER HEAD LIGHTING AND LACK OF VISION TO STAY ON THE ROADWAY. PLEASE HELP GET THIS ON THE RECALL LIST AND IT'S NOT EVEN A EXPENSIVE FIX. HELP SAFE LIFES! THANK YOU

THE HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATION IS INADEQUATE BOTH ON LOW AND HIGH BEAMS. JUST UPGRADED FOR THE 2ND TIME THE BULBS FOR WHICH I HAVE ASCERTAINED THAT THE ILLUMINATION DOESN'T PROVIDE FOR MY PERSONAL SAFETY AS WELL AS FOR THE PUBLIC AT LARGE. THIS IS NOT MERELY MY OWN OBSERVATION BUT FOR ALL THOSE WHO EITHER DRIVE OR ARE PASSENGERS IN THIS VEHICLE. ACCORDING TO THE PUBLIC FORUMS FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM...THEY HAVEN'T FOUND ANY CORRECTIVE SOLUTION. PLEASE, I IMPLORE YOU TO REVIEW AND FIND SOME SOLUTION TO GM'S INHERENT PROBLEM. IF PEOPLE HAVEN'T BEEN INJURED AND OR MORE SERIOUSLY (KILLED), IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME. I CURRENTLY HAVE 60 K MILES ON THIS VEHICLE WHICH I PURCHASED USED FROM A DEALER WITH 20K MILES. I HAVE HAD 2 INDEPENDENT GM DEALERSHIPS LOOK AT THIS PROBLEM WITHOUT ANY CORRECTIVE ACTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM, WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WELL AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH HALOGEN BULBS. THE CONTACT UPGRADED TO LED BULBS, BUT THE ILLUMINATION DID NOT GET BRIGHTER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHARLIE'S CHEVROLET (877-688-4621, LOCATED AT 1412 U S 202, WINTHROP, ME 04364) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN RECOMMENDED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE TEST WAS NOT PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE PERFORMED AS DESIGNED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE CONTACT UPGRADED TO HID BULBS ON HIS OWN, WHICH OFFERED BETTER LIGHTING THAN THE ORIGINAL BULBS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000.

HAVE A BAD TAIL LIGHT ON MY RIGHT SIDE AND TOOK IT TO ELHARTS TO SEE WHY IT WON'T LIGHT UP WITH NEW BULBS AND THEY SAID THAT THE WHOLE TAIL LIGHT HAS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT HAS BAD WIRING I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS TO BE DONE WHEN IT'S A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM THAT IT WAS BAD WHEN IT WAS PUT INTO MY TRUCK THE PART ALONE WILL COST 215 .00 PLUS I HAVE TO PAY TAXES PLUS LABOR COULD BE TOTALLY NOT HAPPY WOULD LIKE NOT TO COME OUT OF MY POCKET IF I DON'T GET IT FIXED IT WILL CAUSE A ACCIDENT THAT COULD BE VERY BAD

HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 SLT ARE TOTALLY INADEQUATE ON HIGH OR LOW BEAM. THE LIGHTING DISTANCE IS INADEQUATE AND IS SO DIRECTIONAL THAT THERE IS NO SIDE FLAIR LIGHTING FOR TURNING LIKE YOU HAVE WITH CONVENTIONAL HEADLIGHTS. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY BY THE NHTSA. I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR 41/2 YEARS AND THE PROBLEM IS ONGOING SINCE I BOUGHT IT. THE DEALER HAS NO SOLUTION. NEW HI/LOW BULBS, DEALER INSTALLED AND STILL VERY DIM AND UNSAFE.

INTERIOR LIGHT FLASHES WHEN STEPPING ON BREAK PEDAL

THE VEHICLE'S HEADLIGHT HAVE SUCH POOR ILLUMINATION IT RENDERS THE VEHICLE UNDRIVABLE AT NIGHT. GM SAYS NOTHING WRONG, I HAVE REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT BULBS WITH 3 DIFFERENT BULBS BOTH OEM AND AFTERMARKET NOTHING IMPROVES THE ILLUMINATION WITH THE STOCK LIGHT HOUSINGS.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO POOR THAT IT FEELS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. ON TOP OF THAT, WHEN IT'S RAINING AT NIGHT, I TRY TO AVOID THE ROADS.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 1 JUST PAST MONTARA BEACH. IT WAS AROUND 7:30 PM AND ALREADY DARK. WE WERE GOING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, BOTH HEADLIGHTS SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. WE WERE APPROACHING AN EXTREMELY CURVY STRETCH OF ROAD ALONG OCEAN CLIFFS AND THERE WAS NOWHERE TO PULL OVER. THE SYMBOL ON THE DASH WAS LIT UP SAYING THAT OUR LIGHTS WERE ON (EVEN THOUGH THEY WEREN'T). THANKFULLY THERE WAS A CAR IN FRONT OF US AND ONE BEHIND US THAT GAVE US ENOUGH LIGHT AND TIME TO REACT WHICH MEANT WE DIDN'T HAVE TO JAM ON OUR BRAKES AND HOPE FOR THE BEST. WE TRIED THE HIGH BEAMS WHICH ALSO DID NOT WORK. AFTER TURNING KNOBS AND PRESSING BUTTONS (WHILE DRIVING) TO GET SOME ILLUMINATION, WE FINALLY WERE ABLE TO TURN ON THE FOG LIGHTS WHICH WAS ENOUGH TO GET US SOMEWHERE SAFE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN TO ANYONE. WITHOUT THE HEADLIGHTS FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF US AND BEHIND US, THIS COULD HAVE ENDED VERY BADLY, POSSIBLY EVEN FATAL. WE WERE NEVER ABLE TO GET THE HEADLIGHTS BACK ON AND PLAN ON BRINGING THE TRUCK TO A LOCAL GMC DEALER TOMORROW. UNFORTUNATELY, EVEN IF WE GET IT FIXED, WE WILL BE WORRIED EVERY TIME WE DRIVE IT AT NIGHT KNOWING THAT THIS COULD HAVE ENDED SO MUCH WORSE. WE HAVEN'T EVEN PUT 1000 MILES ON IT SINCE WE PURCHASED IT.

HEADLIGHTS NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH. ADDED AUXILIARY DRIVING LIGHTS FOR SAFETY AT NIGHT.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS PICKUP MAKE DRIVING AT NIGHT IN RURAL SOUTH DAKOTA ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AND EVEN DANGEROUS. I HAVE OWNED THIS TRUCK FOR ONLY 2 WEEKS AND FOUND IN ORDER TO DRIVE AT NIGHT I HAVE TO HAVE THE FOG LIGHTS ON TO SEE, AND EVEN THAN IT IS NOT MUCH BETTER. THE BRIGHTS HELP NONE. CAN'T EVEN TELL WHEN THEY ARE ON VRS NOT. THERE HAS TO BE A FIX OR SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX THIS. DRIVING AT NIGHT IS DANGEROUS.

HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH. HEADLIGHTS ARE USELESS AT NIGHT. DEALERSHIP CHANGED BULBS AND REPROGRAMMED. VEHICLE IS STILL DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. VEHICLE HAS BEEN THIS WAY SINCE NEW.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THESE TRUCKS ARE HORRIBLE. VERY UNSAFE TO USE.

POOR ILLUMINATION, AFTER A FEW DAYS THE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED THE LIGHT POINTS VERY LOW THAT ITS ALMOST IMPOSIBLE TO SEE AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING AT NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS AND WITH A GOOD WEATHER.

PROBLEM WAS PRESENT FROM THE DAY I BOUGHT TRUCK NEW. I LIVE IN A VERY RURAL AREA AND THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM TO DRIVE SAFELY AT NIGHT. VEHICLE HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALER TWICE, ONCE TO REPLACE BULBS AND REPROGRAM THE BCM. STILL NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH TO FEEL SAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT. SECOND TRIP TO THE DEALER THEY ADJUSTED HEADLIGHT UP TO HIGH END OF SPEC. STILL NOT BRIGHT. I'M TO THE POINT OF INSTALLING AN AFTER MARKET HID KIT.

WHILE DRIVING LOST ALL DASH LIGHTS,, HAD TO PULL TO SIDE OF ROAD SHUT OFF ENGINE THEN RESTART. CAME BACK ON.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE IN THIS TRUCK. WHEN WE DECIDED TO PURCHASE THIS TRUCK IT WAS VERY EXPENSIVE BUT WE THOUGHT WE WERE MAKING A GOOD INVESTMENT-WRONG!!! WHAT GOOD IS THE TRUCK IF WE GET IN ACCIDENT BECAUSE WE CAN'T SEE AT NIGHT. GMC JUST TRIED TO SAVE MONEY WHEREVER THEY COULD-ONLY THE BARE MINIMAL-ITS ALL ONLY ABOUT LINING THEIR POCKETS WITH THE MOST CASH THAT THEY CAN. WE HAVE TALKED TO THE DEALER ABOUT THIS AND THEY SAY THEY IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. GMC REPLACE THE HEADLIGHT STARTING IN THE 2016 BUT WHAT ABOUT THE 2014 & 2015 OUR LIFE'S DON'T MATTER?

VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS FAIL TO ILLUMINATE PROPERLY AT NIGHT. CHECK WITH 2 DIFFERENT GMC DEALERS THEY SAY THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT NO RESOLUTION IS COMING. VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVEABLE AT NIGHT ON DARK ROADS.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE THE WORST PERFORMING LIGHTS I HAVE EVER USED. THEY EMIT A VERY POOR AMOUNT OF LIGHT MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT AND BARELY ABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT IF IT IS RAINING. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS AT NIGHT BECAUSE OF THE POOR LIGHTING. I HAVE HAD THE UPGRADE DONE BY GM AND THAT DID NOT MAKE THESE LIGHTS MUCH BETTER AND DEFINITELY DID NOT MAKE IT SAFER TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THEY NEED TO REPLACE THE LIGHTS WITH THE UPDATED VERSION THEY HAVE INSTALLED IN THE 2016 MODELS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS PROVIDED MINIMUM VISIBILITY AT NIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE A DEFECT WAS NOT DETERMINED THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 21,000. UPDATED 05/17/17*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE HEADLIGHTS WERE VERY DIM. UPDATED 10/11/2017*JS

THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE. WHEN DRIVING IN A AREA WITH STREET LIGHTING THEY HAVE VERY LITTLE AFFECT .MY 20 YEAR OLD MAZDA MPV HAS BETTER LIGHTS

NO ACCIDENT... YET! BUT HAVE HAD MULTIPLE NEAR MISSES, AND FEEL IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME. THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE EXTREMELY INADEQUATE EVEN AFTER HAVING THE RECOMMENDED HEADLIGHT UPGRADE SERVICE BULLITEN COMPLETED BY MY LOCAL DEALER.

EXTREMELY POOR VISIBILITY WITH PROJECTION HEADLIGHTS, VERY LITTLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HI & LOW BEAMS. DEALER STATES THEY MEET REQUIREMENTS.

VERY POOR PERFORMANCE FROM THE HEADLIGHTS.

GMC SIERRA MY2014 HEADLIGHT DON'T ILLUMINATE PROPERLY DOWN THE ROAD, THE HEADLIGHT DON'T GIVE GOOD ADVISABLY DURING DRY,FOG, OR WET CONDITIONS. IT IS KIND OF SAD SPENDING OVER 45K ON A VEHICLE THAT DOESN'T ILLUMINATE PROPERLY. I HAVE OWN OTHER GM VEHICLES HAVE BETTER ILLUMINATION. THERE HAS TO BE A WAY TO GET A FIX FOR THIS TRUCKS

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, THEY ARE VERY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT. YOU CAN NOT SEE SIDES OR IN FRONT OF YOU . I HIT A DEER STANDING N THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, DID NOT SEE IT TILL IT WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. MY WIFE HAS A 2006 TAHOE AND HER HEADLIGHTS ARE MUCH BETTER THAN THE ONE IN A 2014. GMC NEEDS TO FIX IT BEFORE PEOPLE START DYING

MY 2014 GMC SIERRA HAS VERY DIM HEAD LIGHTS, VERY DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE YOUR OWN LANE AT TIMES IN THE DARK. ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE WHEN IT'S RAINING AT NIGHT. MANY TIMES I'VE HAD TO DOUBLE CHECK TO MAKE SURE MY HEADLIGHTS WERE ON BECAUSE THERE SO DIM IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE THERE ON AT ALL. IT MAKES FOR VERY NERVE RACKING DRIVING AT NIGHT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THESE HEADLIGHTS, IT'S VERY DANGEROUS FOR GMC DRIVERS AND OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD.. TEST DRIVE ONE IN THE RAIN AT NIGHT OUT IN THE COUNTRY.. NOT IN TOWN , WITH STREET LIGHTS!!! *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS AND RUNNING LIGHTS ARE NOT ADEQUATE ENOUGH AT NIGHTTIME TO SEE . LIMITED SITE DISTANCE AND BRIGHTNESS. I DONT LIKE DRIVING AT NIGHT BECAUSE OF THIS CREATING A SAFETY PROBLEM. LOOKING AT THE POSSIBILITY OF INSTALLING LED LIGHTS BUT DONT THINK I SHOULD BARE THE COST SINCE GMC HAS A PROBLEM THEY NEED TO CORRECT BEFORE I AM HURT DRIVING WITH THESE UNSUITABLE LIGHTS THEY HAVE INSTALLED ON THEIR VEHICLES.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 HEADLIGHTS ARE UNSAFE AT NIGHT ON DIM OR HIGH BEAM. CANNOT SEE CLOSE TO THE SIDES OR DISTANCE. WOULD BE EASY TO HIT A PEDESTRIAN. ASKED THE DEALER IF THERE WAS A RECALL OR IF THEY COULD FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY SAID NO THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I HAVE READ MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ON LINE AND DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ANYTHING BEING DONE ABOUT IT. WHY ISN'T ANYTHING BEING DONE BEFORE PEOPLE GETTING KILLED OR INJURED..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH AT NIGHT TO SEE PAST 20 FEET. THE DEALER COULD NOT DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM I DOUBT IT WOULD BE ANY LESS SAFE TO DRIVE AROUND WITH THEM OFF. I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE, AND MY FIRST TIME DRIVING AT NIGHT I HAD TO PARK, GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND CHECK TO SEE IF THE LIGHT BULBS WERE BURNED OUT. THE BULBS WERE NOT BURNED OUT, BUT THEY ALSO DO NOT FUNCTION AS HEADLIGHTS BECAUSE THEY LITERALLY ILLUMINATE NOTHING. I CAN SEE THE SHADOW OF MY TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME IN OTHER VEHICLES HEADLIGHTS AS THEY PASS ME. IF AN OBJECT, AN ANIMAL, OR A PERSON WERE IN THE ROAD IN FRONT OF ME I DOUBT I WOULD BE ABLE TO SEE THEM BEFORE IT WAS TOO LATE. I BELIEVE A SIERRA EQUIPPED WITH THESE HEADLIGHTS WILL LIKELY BE INVOLVED IN A COLLISION WITH SERIOUS INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR EVEN DEATH. I CAN ONLY PRAY AND HOPE THAT I'M NOT ONE OF THEM. GM HAS RELEASED A TSB WITH AN EXPENSIVE PROCEDURE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM SIGNALING TO ME THAT THEY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT A PROBLEM EXIST. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. I CAN NOT SEE VERY FAR DOWN THE ROAD AND I CAN NOT SEE THE SHOULDERS OF THE ROADWAY. IT IS NOT VERY SAFE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT WITH THE FACTORY INSTALLED HEADLIGHTS.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE UNSAFE FOR NIGHTTIME DRIVING ESPECIALLY IN DARKER RURAL AREAS AND IN BAD WEATHER. THE SIDE LIGHTING FROM THE HEADLIGHTS ARE NEARLY NONEXISTENT ESPECIALLY AROUND SHARP CURVES. IN ORDER TO READ SIGNS AT NIGHT I OFTEN HAVE TO USE MY HIGHBEAMS IN ORDER TO READ THEM REGARDLESS IF THERE IS TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF ME OR ONCOMING. I DRIVE HOME FROM WORK NIGHTLY WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON THE ENTIRE WAS UNLESS THERE IS A CAR CLOSE IN FRONT OF ME. I'VE YET TO HAVE ONCOMING TRAFFIC FLASH THEIR LIGHTS AT ME DO TO HAVING MY HIGHBEAMS ON. I HAVE MADE THE DEALERSHIP AWARE AS WELL AS CORPORATE GM . AS OF NOW THE ONLY ACTION THEY WILL TAKE IS TO REPLACE MY OLD BULBS WITH THE SAME BULBS THEY TOOK OUT. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE BUT YET NO RECALL HAS BEEN MADE. ONLY A TSB WHICH I CAN'T EVEN GET MY DEALERSHIP TO FOLLOW. *TR

POOR LIGHTING (HEADLIGHTS), TO THE POINT WHERE IT IS UNSAFE. WORSE YET, I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE TSB WHICH GIVES A SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT, AND CANNOT GET IT DONE AT NO COST TO ME DUE TO MY WARRANTY BEING OVER BY 4,000 MILES.

HEADLIGHTS ARE UNSAFE FOR NIGHT DRIVING. HIGH BEAM ALSO DOES NOT HELP THE ILLUMINATION ISSUES. DRIVING IN THE RAIN AT NIGHT IS SCARY THE LIGHTS ARE DIM, AND DO NOT LIGHT UP SURROUNDING AREAS. TOOK TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP, THEY KEPT IT FOR 3 MONTHS PUT NEW BULBS IN, AND I STILL WILL NOT DRIVE THE TRUCK AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY WITH MY FAMILY WITH ME. SPENT 45K ON TRUCK AND CANT DRIVE IT AT NIGHT. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT BULBS, BRANDS, LOOKED FOR SOLUTIONS, AND STILL HAVE YET TO FIND ANY HELP. *TR

THESE TRUCKS HAVE THE WORST HEADLIGHTS THAT I HAVE EVER OWNED AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED.

POOR HEADLIGHTS. THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA ARE TERRIBLE AT BEST. UNABLE TO SEE ANYTHING AT NIGHT

I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK NEW IN OCTOBER, 2014. MY RESEARCH PRIOR TO PURCHASE SHOWED A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE HEADLIGHTS, BUT I DID NOT THINK THERE WERE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS FOR ME TO BE CONCERNED. I WAS WRONG. I LIVE IN A RURAL AREA AND THE HEADLIGHTS ARE DEFINITELY INADEQUATE ON THE LOW BEAM SETTING. THE MECHANICAL SHUTTER DESIGN PRODUCES A VERY SHARP BEAM CUTOFF AT ABOUT THE LEVEL OF THE HOOD, MAKING IT SEEM LIKE YOU ARE SITTING IN A DARKENED AREA ABOVE A BOWL OF LIGHT. THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS PROVIDE LITTLE, IF ANY, ILLUMINATION OF OBJECTS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I USE THE FOG/DRIVING LIGHTS CONTINUALLY ON THE TRUCK OR I WOULD NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING IT WITH LOW BEAMS IN UNLIT AREAS. FOR THE SAKE OF COMPARISON, I HAVE ATTACHED TWO IMAGES TAKEN ON TWO CONSECUTIVE MORNINGS AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME LOCATION ON MY DRIVEWAY. THE TRUCK PICTURE WAS TAKEN APPROXIMATELY TEN MINUTES LATER THAN THE CAR PICTURE (BOTH WERE APPROXIMATELY 6:45 A.M.). NOTE THERE IS A SLIGHT PERSPECTIVE SHIFT DUE TO THE HEIGHT DIFFERENCE IN THE VEHICLES AND THE DRIVING/FOG LIGHTS WERE NOT ON ON EITHER VEHICLE WHEN THE PICTURE WAS TAKEN. NOTE THE 25-YEAR OLD TECHNOLOGY SEALED BEAM HEADLIGHTS SHOW THE FENCE POSTS AT THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHERE THE GMC'S HEADLIGHTS SHOW A DARK VOID. IT HONESTLY FEELS LIKE YOU ARE DRIVING THROUGH A TUNNEL OF LIGHT IN THE TRUCK. YOU HAVE NO HOPE OF SEEING ANY OBJECTS ON EITHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. THERE IS A TSB ON THIS ISSUE THAT RECOMMENDS REPLACING THE BULBS AND REPROGRAMMING THE BCM. MY TRUCK HAS NOT HAD THIS PERFORMED BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT HAVE THE BULBS IN STOCK WHEN I ASKED ABOUT IT. THERE IS SOME DEBATE ON MESSAGE BOARDS REGARDING WHETHER OR NOT THE UPDATE OFFERS ANY BENEFITS. ADDITIONALLY, THE NEW BULBS ALLEGEDLY HAVE A SIGNIFICANTLY SHORTENED LIFE OVER THE ORIGINALS AND THEY CAN BE DIFFICULT TO LOCATE WHEN NEEDED.

HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE DURING NIGHT TIME DRIVING IS POOR AND UNSAFE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN RURAL AREAS.

THE BASIC DESIGN OF THE HEADLIGHTS DOES NOT ALLOW FOR A SUFFICIENT LEVEL OF LIGHTING TO SAFELY OPERATE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT. THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO LATERAL LIGHTING, AND THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE WAY FORWARD, THEY ONLY DROP A SHUTTER IN FRONT OF THE LIGHTS WHEN ONE SWITCHES FROM LOW BEAM TO HIGH. THERE IS NO INCREASE IN LIGHT INTENSITY OR VOLUME WHEN SWITCHING TO BRIGHT LIGHTS. RECALL AND FIX!!!!!!

VERY DIM HEADLIGHTS CAUSING DIFFICULTY DRIVING AT NIGHT AND IN RAINY WEATHER. 2014 GMC SIERRA WITH 13000 MILES.PURCHASED TRUCK IN MARCH OF 2015 NOTICED LIGHTING ISSUE FIRST TIME I DROVE AT NIGHT

THE POOR HEADLIGHTS IN THIS VEHICLE PREVENT IT FROM BEING SAFELY OPERATED AFTER DARK.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TO DIM , IT IS HARD TO SEE ,THEY DO NOT PROJECT VERY FAR .THE WORST HEADLIGHTS I HAVE EVER HAD

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE INADEQUATE FOR DRIVING AT NIGHT. IF IT'S RAINING AT NIGHT, I WON'T DRIVE IT. I BOUGHT A NEW TRUCK FROM GMC , IT'S UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT, AND GMC SHOULD FIX IT !!

THERE TRULY IS NO ACCIDENT AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER ... IF THIS CONDITION ISN'T CORRECTED, THERE WILL BE ACCIDENTS. THESE MAY RESULT IN NOT ONLY LOSS OF LIFE OR PROPERTY, BUT POSSIBLE CRIMINAL PROSECUTION. THE ISSUE: THE PROJECTOR HEADLAMP DESIGN OF THE 2014 GMC SIERRA IS EXTREMELY SUBPAR FOR LIGHTING THE ROADWAY AHEAD OF YOU. INDIVIDUALS, IN ORDER TO NOT "OUTDRIVE" THEIR LIGHTS, WOULD PROBABLY HAVE TO GO BELOW POSTED MINIMUM SPEED LIMITS ON HIGHWAYS, PRESENTING YET ANOTHER ISSUE FOR THE DRIVER AS WELL AS THOSE WHO WOULD APPROACH FROM THE REAR IN NIGHTTIME DRIVING CONDITIONS. I CONTACTED GMC ... AWARE OF THE ISSUE. NO HELP AT THIS TIME. I GOT THE IMPRESSION FROM THE OPERATOR THAT "NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE FILED COMPLAINTS." I'M GUESSING THAT WHEN THE CATASTROPHIC AND TRAGIC HAPPENS, IT WILL NOT MATTER THAT NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE FILED COMPLAINTS ... OFFICIALLY. SLIGHT RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET WILL SHOW MANY INDIVIDUALS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE ISSUE. BUT GMC'S ADMISSION THAT THEY ARE "AWARE" BUT ARE TAKING NO ACTION AT THIS POINT IS VERY DISTURBING. I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT DESIGN ISSUES WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE CLEARED BY AN OVERSIGHT AGENCY OF SOME SORT? I JUST DISCOVERED THE EXTREMELY SCARY FEELING OF "DRIVING IN THE DARK" ... BASICALLY ... AFTER HAVING MY TRUCK SINCE THANKSGIVING. BUT I DRIVE MOSTLY IN THE DAYLIGHT, AND HAVE BEEN ON INTERSTATE 20 IN ONE OF THE BUSIEST SECTIONS WITH TRAFFIC AT NIGHT ... NOT REALIZING HOW MUCH OTHERS' LIGHTS WERE HELPING. WHEN DRIVING ALONE ON A RURAL ROAD, HOWEVER, IT IS TANTAMOUNT TO DRIVING WITH A FLASHLIGHT WHEN IT COMES TO SAFETY. I AM WANTING TO TRUST THAT THE AGENCY TASKED WITH SAFETY WILL PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE? BEFORE SOMEONE OR MULTIPLES LOSE THEIR LIVES AND LAWSUITS ENSUE?

VEHICLE HAS POOR HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. HAS BEEN BACK TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE PURCHASE IN 2014. REPROGRAMMING AND HEADLIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT WAS INEFFECTIVE. NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IN RURAL/DARK AND OR RAIN/SNOW/DARK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS BECAME UNRESPONSIVE AND PRODUCED DIM LIGHTING ON THE ROAD. THE FAILURE HINDERED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BE REPAIRED, BUT THE ISSUE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,600.

HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE. IN A DARK RURAL AREA, THEY ARE SO DIM THEY ARE DANGEROUS. YOU CAN EASILY OUTDRIVE YOUR HEADLIGHTS. IN THE DARK AND RAIN, YOU SHOULD STAY HOME. IT'S SAD I CAN'T DRIVE MY $50,000 TRUCK AT NIGHT. DEALER'S "FIX" WAS WORTHLESS. SO ANGRY. I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER GM VEHICLE!

EXTREMELY POOR/UNSAFE HEADLIGHTS. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE SINCE PURCHASED NEW. "LURKING" IN FORUMS AND COMPLAINT WEB SITES ASSUMING A FIX WOULD BE FORTHCOMING. I GUESS NOT. INSUFFICIENT LIGHTING AT NIGHT IN RURAL SETTINGS WITH NO AMBIENT LIGHT. CANNOT SEE ANYWHERE NEAR THE DISTANCE REQUIRED TO DRIVE SAFELY AT POSTED LIMITS AND NON-EXISTENT SIDE LIGHTING. 2 NEAR MISSES WITH DEER GRAZING ON SIDE OF ROAD AS PROOF. I SPENT THE MONEY FOR GOOD AUXILIARY DRIVING LIGHTS AND A LIGHT BAR TO PUT THEM ON BUT ARE ONLY USEFUL WITH NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. CURRENT REPLACEMENT BULBS/BCM REPROGRAM CAUSE LIMITED IMPROVEMENT WITH SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN BULB FAILURE FREQUENCY. 2016 REDESIGN ELIMINATED THESE LIGHTS AND RETROFIT TO 2014/15 HARDWARE IS AVAILABLE. GM SHOULD STEP UP!

I HAVE RETURNED MY GMC CREW CAB SIERRA 2014 TO THE DEALER 5 TIMES BECAUSE OF INADEQUATE HEADLIGHTS. THE FIRST TIME THEY SERVICE DEPT. READJUSTED THEM WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. THE THIRD TIME BACK THE BULBS WERE REPLACED PER A BULLETIN AND BCM REPROGRAMMED. STILL NO IMPROVEMENT ESPECIALLY ON THE RIGHT SIDE. THE FOURTH TIME I HAD MY INTELLIGENCE INSULTED WHEN THE SERVICE ADVISER TOLD ME IT WAS BECAUSE THE GARAGE DOOR HE SHONE THEM ON WAS DIRTIER ON THE RIGHT SIDE. WHAT AN EXCUSE AND ONLY A FOOL WOULD INSULT HIS OWN INTELLIGENCE WITH THAT REMARK. THE FIFTH TIME BACK THE PARTS MANAGER HAD ORDERED A NEW BULB FOR THE RIGHT SIDE AND WAS CONSEQUENTLY REPLACED A SECOND TIME. I WROTE A CERTIFIED LETTER THEN TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAS CONTACTED BY MARK 1-866-522-0300 EXT.#5921569. HE SAID I WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND LEAVE IT SO THEY COULD DRIVE IT AT NITE. I DID THAT AND IT WAS DRIVEN BY PAUL AND UPON CONTACTING HIM THIS AM HE TOLD ME THE LOW BEAMS WERE ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE AND OVERALL THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE TRUCK WERE AS LOUSY AS ALL THE 2014 AND 15 TRUCKS ARE. UPON PICKING THE TRUCK UP THIS AFTERNOON THE SAME REDICULIS SERVICE ADVISOR (WALLY) TOLD ME THAT HE DIDN'T DRIVE IT AND PAUL DID AND TOLD HIM THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTS. WHO IS THE LIAR? ISINCERELY BELIEVE IT IS WALLY BECAUSE HE IS BOUND AND DETERMINED NOT TO FIX IT. THE HIGH BEAMS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE WHAT THE LOW BEAMS SHOULD BE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A $53000 TRUCK SHOULD HAVE SAFE HEADLIGHTS. ON LOW BEAM THERE IS A BLACK CURTAIN ONLY A FEW FEET FROM THE HOOD AND GOING DOWNHILL THAT BLACK IS ALMOST AT THE END OF THE HOOD. I HAVE OVER THE PAST 18 MONTHS TALKED TO FOUR GM REPS AT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER, WITH THE THIRD ONE TELLING SHE WOULD MAKE ARRANGEMENTS TO REPLACE THE LIGHT SYSTEM WITH THE 2016 SYSTEM. SHE CALLED THE DEALER SETTING IT UP AND THEN NEVER FOLLOWED THROUGH.

NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE DARK COUNTRYSIDE ROADS. NO SIDE VISIBILITY AT ALL. I ALMOST HIT A COW.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH FOR NIGHT DRIVING ON COUNTRY ROADS WITHOUT STREET LIGHTS, ON BRIGHT OR DIM MODE. THESE ARE THE WORSE HEADLIGHTS ON ANY CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED, I PERSONALLY HAVE BOUGHT 4 BRAND NEW GMC PICKUPS, THIS IS THE WORSE. I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT TEST DRIVING AT NIGHT, I TRUSTED THEM, WRONG!

VISIBILITY FROM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY POOR AT NIGHT. VERY BAD SAFETY HAZARD IF NOT CORRECTED BY GMC!!

CAN NOT SEE AT NIGHT,NEEDS TO BE RECALLED

HEADLIGHTS ARE DIM AND HORRIBLE. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE MY TRUCK AT NIGHT. LIGHTING IS EXTREMELY SUB STANDARD COMPARED TO ALL OF THE OTHER TRUCKS ON THE MARKET AND ROADWAYS. THIS NEEDS ADDRESSED ASAP BEFORE PEOPLE GET KILLED. GMC DOESNT SEEM TO CARE ABOUT THESE ISSUES.

HEAD LIGHT DON'T OFFER ENOUGH LIGHTING AT NIGHT

HEAD LIGHTS ARE SUBSTANDARD AND UNSAFE ON THIS VEHICLE. IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE FASTER THAN 40 MPH ON LOW BEAM AND NOT MUCH BETTER ON HIGH BEAM. WHEN TURNING 90 DEGREES YOU ARE TURNING IN TO THE DARK.

HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM, EVEN ON THE HIGH-BEAM SETTING. MAKES IT EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO OPERATE AT NIGHT AND I WILL NOT DRIVE IT AT NIGHT UNLESS IT'S AN EMERGENCY DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE TERRIBLE, BOTH LACK OF SIDE PROJECTION AND FRONT PROJECTION ARE UNSAFE ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING IN RURAL AREAS OR DURING WET ROAD CONDITIONS. I HAVE HAD THE BCM UPDATE AND NEW BULBS INSTALLED FROM GMC BUT THIS OFFERED VERY LITTLE IMPROVEMENT. DRIVING WITH THE FOG LAMPS ON OFFER THE ONLY LATERAL VISION TO SEE TURNING ANY CORNER.

THE VEHICLE LIGHTS ARE VERY DIM EVEN WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT CAN BARELY SEE IN FRONT OF ME. THESE ARE A HAZARD TO ME AND OTHERS, SINCE NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE A GOOD DISTANCE IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE MAKES HARD TO SEE PEDESTRIANS, ANIMALS OR DEBRIS IN THE ROAD AT NIGHT.

CAN NOT SEE THE ROAD WITH THE LIGHT OUTPUT WITH THESE FACTORY HEADLIGHT

FROM THE FACTORY THE HEADLIGHTS THAT COME ON THIS VEHICLE ARE SUB-STANDARD AND A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN OPERATING AT NIGHT. NOT ONLY IS LIGHT OUTPUT POOR, BUT THE WIDTH OF THE BEAM IS HORRIBLE. WHEN TURNING AT NIGHT THERE IS ZERO COVERAGE AND YOU HAVE TO MAKE YOUR TURN WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO SEE PROPERLY. THESE PROBLEMS PERSIST AT ANY TIME HEADLIGHTS NEED TO BE UTILIZED.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM AND ARE UNSAFE. IN MY 50+ YEARS OF DRIVING, I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED HEADLIGHTS SO BAD. I LIVE IN A DARK RURAL AREA WITHOUT ANY STREETLIGHTS AND LOTS OF BICYCLISTS AND DEER. I HAVE ALREADY HAD MANY NEAR MISSES ON RURAL ROADS, AND FEAR IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE AN ACCIDENT HAPPENS.

HEAD LIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND I CAN NOT SAFELY SEE THE PATH I AM TRAVELING. AN UPGRADE WAS PERFORMED AT THE DEALERSHIP WHICH HELPED SOMEWHAT BUT I STILL CAN NOT SAFELY SEE THE PATH I AM TRAVELING. I DREAD DRIVING THIS TRUCK AT NIGHT AND DO NOT FEEL SAFE DOING SO.

THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS, AS INSTALLED FROM THE FACTORY AND PROPERLY ADJUSTED, ARE INADEQUATE FOR DRIVING ON DARK COUNTRY ROADS AT NIGHT, IN THE ABSENCE OF AMBIENT LIGHTING FROM STREET AND YARD LIGHTS. THE LIGHT IS CAST WELL DOWN THE ROAD, BUT THERE IS TOO LITTLE LIGHT SPREAD TO THE SHOULDERS OF THE ROAD, MAKING PEDESTRIANS AND ANIMALS DIFFICULT TO SEE IF THEY ARE NOT DIRECTLY IN THE ROADWAY. I LIVE IN A RURAL AREA WITH MANY PEACH ORCHARDS AND PASTURES, THEREFORE THERE ARE OFTEN FEW, IF ANY, STREET OR YARD LIGHTS TO PROVIDE ANY AMBIENT LIGHTING. ALSO, MANY OF THE ROADS IN THE AREA HAVE NEITHER PAINTED LINES NOR REFLECTORS TO HELP MARK THE PATH OF TRAVEL AT NIGHT. IF THERE ARE HILLS AND CURVES, THE LIGHT PATTERN AND OUTPUT OF THE FACTORY INSTALLED LIGHTS ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO DISTINGUISH UNMARKED PAVEMENT FROM THE GRASS ON THE SHOULDERS OF THE ROAD. ALL OF THESE SHORTCOMINGS ARE MAGNIFIED WHEN ROADS ARE WET AND/OR IT IS RAINING OR OTHERWISE INCLEMENT WEATHER. I APPROACHED MY DEALER HERE IN SPARTANBURG, SC, ABOUT A REMEDY FOR THE INADEQUATE HEADLIGHTS, BUT THE REPRESENTATIVE WAS DISMISSIVE AND DID NOT FOLLOW-UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE VERY DIM. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20.

I ALMOST HIT A DEER WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NEW AS I COULD NOT SEE IT UNTIL IT WAS NEXT TO THE PASSENGER DOOR, STANDING STILL. I HAD THE DEALER ADJUST THE LIGHTS THREE TIMES AND INSTALL THE GMC UPDATE, ON THE COMPUTER. I NOW HAVE A BLOB OF WHITE LIGHT FALL ON THE CENTER LINE AND ANOTHER BLOB IN THE CENTER OF THE DRIVING LANE. THERE IS NO LIGHT ILLUMINATING FAR FORWARD OR TO THE SIDES AS SHOULD BE. I TALKED WITH THE DEALER AND THERE ARE NO FURTHER UPDATES FOR NOW. I HAVE SINCE HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS. I HAVE DRIVEN PROFESSIONALLY IN THE PAST.

THE HEADLIGHT OUTPUT AT NIGHT, PARTICULARLY IN RURAL BACK ROAD AREAS IS LESS THAN ADEQUATE. POOR REALLY. I ORIGINALLY HAD MOISTURE ISSUES IN BOTH HEADLAMP HOUSINGS, HAD BOTH HEADLAMP HOUSINGS REPLACED AND THE LIGHTING SEEMED TO BE BETTER, HOWEVER NOT VERY MUCH. THE HEADLIGHTS SEEM TO HAVE DARK SPOTS IN THEM AND ONLY LIGHT UP CERTAIN PARTS OF THE ROAD IN FRONT OF ME, AND NEVER MUCH TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. I FEEL THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST LIGHTING OUTPUT OF ANY VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED, AND ACTUALLY FEEL A LITTLE UNSAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT. I MOST DEFINITELY CANNOT TRAVEL AT HIGHER SPEEDS DURING THE NIGHT AS I FEEL LIKE I CANNOT SEE NEARLY GOOD ENOUGH. I HAVE SIMPLY "DEALT" WITH THE ISSUE SINCE BUYING THE TRUCK IN DECEMBER 2013, THINKING THERE WAS NO FIX TO IT AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF THIS ISSUE BEFORE.

THERE IS ALREADY A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS MATTER HOWEVER I FEEL IT IS SERIOUS ENOUGH TO BE A RECALL. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT IN UNLIGHTED AREAS THE BRIGHT LIGHTS LEAVE SERIOUS DARK AREAS ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE TRAVELLING ON CURVY ROADS. IF YOU ENCOUNTER A PEDESTRIAN OR OTHER OBJECT IN THE ROAD IN THESE AREAS THEY CANNOT BE SEEN UNTIL ITS POSSIBLY TOO LATE. THE MANUFACTURER WILL ONLY DO THE REPAIR IF YOU COMPLAIN ABOUT IT AND ITS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPAIRED BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED.

HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT ADEQUATE FOR SUBURBAN OR RURAL AREAS. INADEQUATE SIDE-TO-SIDE ILLUMINATION IN HI OR LOW. DEALER IS UNABLE TO FIX.

TODAY FOR THE FIRST TIME I DROVE MY 2014 SIERRA TEXAS EDITION IN THE RAIN AT NIGHT.... WOW>>>>> I HAD TO STOP AND WAIT FOR THE RAIN DOWNPOUR TO LET OUT SO I COULD SEE WHERE I WAS GOING. NOT GOOD. DRIVING AT NIGHT IS VERY STRESSFUL AND EYE STRAINING TO THE POINT OF TAKING HEADACHE MEDICATIONS ONCE YOU ARE DONE DRIVING. ANY WAY TO FIX THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM? THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY HAZARD TO DRIVERS AND ANY OTHERS ON THE ROAD. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND RESOLVED ASAP. AND GM STILL SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. SO WHY ARE THEY CHANGING THE DESIGN ON THE 2016'S TRUCKS AFTER CONTACTING [XXX] TO SEE IF HE COULD PROVIDE SOME HELP THIS IS WHAT HE HAD TO SAY HI [XXX]: THANKS FOR WATCHING! THE BEST WAY TO SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM IS TO INSTALL A SET OF LED AUXILIARY DRIVING LIGHTS. THEY CAN BE PURCHASED FOR ABOUT $300.00 PLUS LABOR AND MAKE A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE. AT LEAST THAT?S THE WAY WE HAVE ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM ON THOSE TRUCKS IN MY SHOP. SINCERELY, [XXX] MOTORWEEK TELEVISION NEWS CHANNEL 8 TELEVISION INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE TERRIBLE. THEY ARE DIM AND HAVE A VERY POOR LIGHT PATTERN. (THE BULB PRESUMABLY MEETS FEDERAL STANDARDS, BUT THE PROJECTOR SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED FOR A BRIGHTER BULB). IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE THE SIDES OF THE ROAD, OR VERY FAR DOWN THE ROAD, ON ROADS WHERE THERE ARE NO STREETLIGHTS. IT IS EVEN WORSE ON A RAINY, DARK ROAD. GM INSTITUTED A TSB (#PIT5374, ATTACHED) IN FEBRUARY 2015 WHICH INVOLVES REPROGRAMMING THE BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) TO INCREASE THE VOLTAGE TO THE HEADLIGHT BULBS AND SUBSTITUTING VOSLA HIR 55 WATT BULBS FOR THE ORIGINAL STOCK 55 WATT BULBS. THE RESULTS ARE A MINIMAL IMPROVEMENT. THE NEW 2016 MODELS HAVE THE SAME HEADLIGHT DESIGN BUT HAVE BEEN UPGRADED TO A HID BULB THAT CANNOT JUST BE PLUGGED INTO THE 2014/15 HEADLIGHTS. THE IMPROVED BULB AND WIRING IS EVIDENCE THE TSB DID NOT REALLY IMPROVE THE LIGHTING VERY MUCH. (THE INTERNET IS FULL OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE; RECOMMEND YOU GOOGLE "GMC SIERRA HEADLIGHTS" AND SEE WHAT YOU GET!). I LIVE IN NORTHERN VIRGINIA AND WOULD BE GLAD TO COME DOWN TO THE NHTSA BUILDING ON A DARK, RAINY NIGHT AND GIVE YOU A RIDE -- THE PROBLEM ISN'T SO BAD IN AREAS WHERE THERE ARE STREETLIGHTS, BUT IT IS TERRIBLE OUT IN THE COUNTRY. BOTTOM LINE, GM SHOULD BE DIRECTED TO ISSUE A RECALL THAT INVOLVES REPLACING THE WIRING HARNESS AND BULB WITH THEIR LATEST DESIGN. THE HEADLIGHTS IN THE 2014/2014 SIERRA ARE HAZARDOUS TO THE PEOPLE IN THE TRUCK AND TO PEDESTRIANS ALONG THE ROAD. THANKS FOR LISTENING TO MY COMPLAINT, AND PLEASE TAKE ACTION FOR SAFETY'S SAKE. (NOTE: THERE IS NO SPECIFIC TIME, MILEAGE, MPH, ETC., THAT THIS WAS NOTED. IT IS CONTINUAL. I HAD THE TSB PERFORMED IN THE SUMMER OF 2015 AND NOTED MINIMAL IMPROVEMENT AT THAT TIME.)

THE HEAD LIGHT ON MY $30.000 SIERRA TRUCK CAN,T SEE AT NIGHT! GM NEEDS A RECALL

THE PROJECTOR BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2 YEAR OLD GMC SIERRA ARE, AND HAVE BEEN, NOTICEABLY DIM TO THE POINT OF BEING A SAFETY CONCERN. IT'S AS IF TRYING TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WHILE WEARING DARK SUNGLASSES. IN ADDITION TO BEING DIM, THERE'S ALSO THE PROBLEM OF SIDE ILLUMINATION. I CAN SEE SOME OF THE ROAD AHEAD, BUT CAN'T SEE THE DITCHES ON EITHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. I CONSIDER THIS LACK OF SIDE ILLUMINATION TO ALSO BE A SAFETY ISSUE, ESPECIALLY WHEN NEGOTIATING TURNS OR CURVES. USING HIGH BEAMS OFFERS LITTLE, IF ANY IMPROVEMENT. THE HIGH BEAMS ONLY SEEM TO SHINE HIGHER (TREE TOP HEIGHT), BUT OFFER NO REAL INCREASE IN EITHER SIDE ILLUMINATION OR ACTUAL BRIGHTNESS. THE "EYE LIDS" LIFT, BUT POOR ILLUMINATION REMAINS UNCHANGED. ABOUT THE ONLY OPTION IS FOR ME TO DRIVE WITH THE FOG LIGHTS ON. USING FOG LIGHTS AT LEAST GIVES A BIT MORE SIDE ILLUMINATION, BUT STILL DOES NOTHING TO ASSIST WITH "DOWN THE ROAD" ILLUMINATION. I'VE BEEN SURPRISED AT SUCH POOR LIGHTING BEING INSTALLED ON AN OTHERWISE GREAT TRUCK. THESE PROJECTOR BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE SUPPOSEDLY OFFERED AS PART OF PREMIUM PACKAGES. IF THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE GMC'S BEST, I'M SURE GLAD I DIDN'T GET THE CHEAPER LIGHTS! MY ONLY HOPE IS THAT GMC WILL OFFER SOME TYPE OF HEADLIGHT UPGRADE, POSSIBLY LED LIGHTS.

I BOUGHT MY 2014 GMC SIERRA BRAND NEW IN DEC 2014 AND HAD IT BACK TO THE DEALER WITHIN 3 WEEKS BECAUSE I WAS SURE THERE WAS A DEFECT WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ! YOU CAN ONLY SEE MAYBE 30 FEET IN FRONT OF YOU AND NOTHING IF YOU MAKE ANY TURN ON A DARK ROAD WITH NO STREETLIGHTS ! THE MECHANIC AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTS AND THEY MEET ALL GENERAL MOTORS SPECIFICATIONS ...I HAVE READ MANY MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER 2014 GMC SIERRA OWNERS WITH THIS SAME COMPLAINT SO I KNOW ITS NOT MY IMAGINATION OR A PROBLEM WITH MY EYESIGHT !! I SURE HOPE THAT GMC DOESN'T WAIT FOR FATALITIES OR A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT BEFORE ADDRESSING AND CORRECTING THIS PROBLEM , I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL GMC CONSUMER FOR 45 YEARS BUT THIS OBVIOUS PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTING AND GMC'S REFUSAL TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS A DESIGN DEFECT I CAN SAY THIS IS THE LAST GMC VEHICLE I WILL EVER PURCHASE . DO THE RIGHT THING GENERAL MOTORS ! FIX THE PROBLEM AND SAVE SOME LIVES !

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AT NIGHT, THE LOW BEAMS AND HIGH BEAMS WERE EXTREMELY DIM WHEN THEY WERE ACTIVATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONTINUOUSLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE DRIVEN AT NIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

HEAD LIGHTS DONT ALLOW YOU TO SEE THE ROAD.NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH,DONT SHINE CORRECTLY.CANT SEE THE ROAD OR DEER AT NIGHT AND ARE WORSE IN THE RAIN.

THE FRONT PROJECTOR HEADLAMPS DO NOT PUT OUT ENOUGH LIGHT TO SAFELY DRIVE ON UNLIT ROADS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THERE IS ALSO LITTLE LIGHT PROJECTED TO THE SIDE MAKING TURNS UNLIT. I RECENTLY HAD A NEAR HIT WITH A PEDESTRIAN ON AN UNLIT STREET BECAUSE OF NO SIDE LIGHTING WHEN MAKING A SLOW TURN. THERE ARE NO HIGHER LUMEN REPLACEMENT BULBS AVAILABLE.

2014 GMC SIERRA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN HE MADE TURNS, THERE WAS NOT SUFFICIENT LIGHTING. THE DEALER STATED THE HEAD LIGHTS WERE FOUR INCHES TOO HIGH, SO THEY ADJUSTED THEM. UPON DRIVING AT NIGHT, HE FOUND THE LIGHTING TO THE SIDE HAD SLIGHTLY IMPROVED, BUT THE LIGHT WAS SHARPLY CUT OFF ABOUT 45 FEET IN FRONT OF THE TRUCK ON WHEN THE LOW BEAMS WERE ON, WHICH MADE IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE OVER 35 MPH. THE HIGH BEAMS GAVE GOOD LIGHTING AT DISTANCES, BUT BROUGHT FLASHED FROM ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE SECOND HEAD LIGHT ADJUSTMENT EXTENDED THE LIGHTING OUT ABOUT 20 INCHES FURTHER, BUT LESS LIGHTING TO THE SIDES FOR TURNING. THE HEAD LIGHTS WERE ADJUSTED AGAIN AND THE TECHNICIAN STATED THE LIGHTS WERE AT THE LEVEL FROM THE FACTORY. THE CONSUMER STATED THE HEAD LIGHTS WERE NOT ADEQUATE IN HIS OPINION. *JB

I TRADED A 2011 GMC SIERRA ON THIS 2014 GMC SIERRA (SLE / DOUBLE CAB / 4.3L V6), PLUS STILL HAVE A 2012 GMC SIERRA, AND THE LIGHTS ON THESE 2 WHEN COMPARED TO THE 2014 GMC WERE / ARE LIKE NIGHT AND DAY - THE 2014 GMC SIERRA IS POSITIVELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT - LIGHTS ARE DISGUSTING - HIGH BEAM ON 2014 GMC IS WORSE THAN LOW BEAM ON MY EARLIER GMC SIERRA'S. TOOK COPY OF "CARCOMPLAINT.COM" REPORT ON HEADLIGHT PROBLEM TO DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY SAID GM HAS NOT PROVIDED THEM WITH ANY INFO' OF "SUPPOSED" PROBLEM, NOR CAN THEY OFFER A SOLUTION. HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM 3 TIMES - NO ACTION, AN NO CONCERN EITHER, IN MY OPINION.

HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS! DEALER PERFORMED UPDATE( NEW BULBS AND INCREASE VOLTAGE TO BCM) BUT IMPROVEMENT WAS MINIMAL. HAVE EVEN TRIED LED CONVERSION, WITH VERY LITLE IMPROVEMENT. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL VEIHCLES WITH PROJECTOR SYSTEM, AND HAD ZERO COMPLAINTS. I HAVE LOOKED A PROJECTOR LENS ON OTHER VEHICLES, AND THEY DO NOT HAVE IMPURITIES (TINY AIR BUBBLES) IN THE LENS. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM LIES IN THE SUB-PAR LENSES.THIS CREATES AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR NIGHT DRIVING.

HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT ADEQUATE FOR NIGHT DRIVING: HAVE DRIVEN THIS TRUCK FOR THE PAST YEAR AT NIGHT AND IN DIFFERENT TYPES OF WEATHER AND HAVE HAD TO REALLY STRAIN MY EYES TO KEEP IT ON THE ROAD DUE TO POOR VISIBILITY DUE TO THE HEAD LIGHTS, AFTER MISSING A TURN LAST NIGHT OFF THE HIGHWAY DECIDED TO SEE IF THE DEALERSHIP WOULD TAKE A LOOK AT THEM AND SEE WHAT THEY COULD DO ,IF THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO ,ILL HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO INSTALL DIFFERENT HEADLIGHTS .

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK SUCK THEY ARE DIM EVEN ON HIGH BEAMS GOING UP A TWISTY MOUNTAIN ROAD AT NIGHT IS LIKE TAKING YOUR LIFE IN YOUR OWN HANDS NOT SAFE AT ALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND PROVIDED POOR VISIBILITY. THE FAILURE WAS WORSE IN RAINY CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE LIGHTS LACKED VOLUME; HOWEVER, THEY DID NOT OFFER ANY REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000. UPDATED 02/12/16*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE TAIL GATE ALLOWED DIRT TO ENTER INSIDE THE TRUCK. UPDATED 03/03/16

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT IT MAKES DRIVING IN DARK CONDITIONS INBREEDING DANGEROUS, EVEN AT LOW SPEEDS THE ILLUMINATION IS UNACCEPTABLE.

POOR LIGHTING ON HEADLIGHTS

TODAY FOR THE FIRST TIME I DROVE MY 2014 SIERRA TEXAS EDITION IN THE RAIN AT NIGHT.... WOW>>>>> I HAD TO STOP AND WAIT FOR THE RAIN DOWNPOUR TO LET OUT SO I COULD SEE WHERE I WAS GOING. NOT GOOD. DRIVING AT NIGHT IS VERY STRESSFULL AND EYE STRAINING TO THE POINT OF TAKING HEADACHE MEDICATIONS ONCE YOU ARE DONE DRIVING. ANY WAYT TO FIX THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM? THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY HAZARD TO DRIVERS AND ANY OTHERS ON THE ROAD. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND RESOLVED ASAP. AND GM STILL SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. SO WHY ARE THEY CHANGING THE DESING ON THE 2016'S TRUCKS

THE HEADLIGHTS IN THE VEHICLE ARE VERY DIM. THEY HAVE A PROJECTOR LIGHT IN THEM AND ONLY HAVE ONE BULB, THEY PROJECTOR MOVES WHEN SWITCHING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN BRIGHT AND DIMS. THE PROBLEM IS THERE'S ONE LITTLE YELLOW CIRCLE OUT IN FRONT OF THE TRUCK ABOUT 30 FEET, THE BRIGHTS DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, AND THERE IS NO LIGHTING TO THE SIDES OF THE TRUCK. THERE IS NO LIGHT ON THE CURB AND MAKING A TURN IS NOT ONLY DIFFICULT BUT ALSO UNSAFE. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN 3 TIMES TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING TO HELP. I READ ONLINE THAT THERE IS AN UPDATE THAT SENDS MORE VOLTAGE TO THE HEADLIGHTS BUT THEY ALSO KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THAT. THE LAST TIME THEY SAID THEY WOULDN'T EVEN ALIGN THE LIGHTS BECAUSE I HAD PUT AFTERMARKET BULBS IN JUST TO BE ABLE TO SEE. THE FOG LIGHTS ARE TWICE AS BRIGHT AS THE HEADLIGHT, I'VE TOLD THEM THAT, CALLED THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER, TOLD THEM THAT, AND THEY DON'T SEEM TO CARE. I SEE ONLINE THAT IT IS A COMMON COMPLAINT AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT IT. ALSO THE ONES LIKE MINE WITH THE VIBRATING SAFETY SEAT GET LOOSE, ALSO A COMMON COMPLAINT, AND THEY WON'T COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL.

THE HIGHLIGHTS ON THE 2014 SIERRA SLE ARE A HAZARD TO TRY TO DRIVE WITH AT NIGHT ONLY LIGHT UP 30-40 FEET IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE I GET MORE LIGHT FROM THE FOG LAMPS TO SEE BY

2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS DESIGN PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED HE DISCOVERED THE HEADLIGHTS ONLY HAD ONE BULB, WHICH MEANT THE HIGH AND LOW BEAMS HAD TO BE ADJUSTED AS ONE UNIT. HE EXITED THE VEHICLE AND MEASURED THE DISTANCE FROM THE VEHICLE TO WHERE THE VISIBILITY ENDED. THE DISTANCE WAS 130 FEET ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ROAD. ALSO, ON A TURN OF 90 OR 120 DEGREES, THERE WAS NO SIDE LIGHTING WHICH MEANT HE HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO A CRAWL IN ORDER TO MAKE A TURN. IN ADDITION, WHEN GOING DOWN HILL, THE VISIBILITY OF THE LIGHTS DECREASED TO ABOUT 20-20 FEET. THE DEALER RAISED THE LIGHTS ABOUT FACTORY SPECS. HE COULD SEE A LITTLE BETTER, BUT THE HIGH BEAMS WERE 20-30 FEET IN THE AIR AND WERE USELESS. *JB MA 08/05/15 THE CONSUMER STATED DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER VISIBILITY DECREASES TO 20-30 FEET/40 FEET MAX. UPDATED 9/24/15*JS

HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM, NOT EXCITED ABOUT DRIVING IN THE DARK, MIGHT AS WELL USE A FLASHLIGHT

THE ORIGINAL HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM WHEN IN THE LOW BEAM STATE. HIGH BEAMS ARE SLIGHTLY BETTER. A BRIGHTER COLOR WOULD BE A GREAT IMPROVEMENT.

I PURCHASED A 2014 GMC SIERRA IN NOVEMBER OF 2014 AND THE HEADLIGHTS ON OUR TRUCK GIVE YOU VERY LIMITED VISIBILITY, IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH HIGH BEAMS OR LOW BEAMS, I USE MY FOG LIGHTS TO HELP ME SEE BETTER BUT THEY DO NOT HELP MUCH ON DISTANCE. I TRADED IN A 2013 SILVERADO THAT HAD AWESOME HEADLIGHTS FOR THIS TRUCK AND RAISED MY PAYMENT 300$ ONLY TO HAVE A TRUCK THAT I CANT DRIVE AT NIGHT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE AND FEEL THAT GM NEEDS TO CORRECT IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BEFORE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT HAPPENS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE LOW BEAMS AND HIGH BEAMS WERE EXTREMELY DIM WHEN ACTIVATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30. UPDATED 6/22/15*CN

I PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE NOV. 2013, AND EVER SINCE I NOTICE THAT THE HEADLIGHT ON THIS VEHICLE DO NOT LIGHT THE ROAD PROPERLY, WHETHER YOU HAVE THEM IN LOW OR HIGH BEAM. THE DISTANCE OF THE LOW AND HIGH BEAM APPEAR TO BE THE SAME (AT TIMES IT SEEMS THE HIGHS) ARE AIMING SKYWARD. NOT TO LONG AGO I ALMOST RAN OVER A WOMAN AND A CHILD WHO WERE CROSSING A STREET OVER TO MY LEFT WHEN I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN (THIS WAS A DARK AREA). LUCKILY I WAS GOING SLOW WHEN I WAS MAKING THE TURN AND WAS ABLE TO SEE THEM WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS HIT THEM AND CAME INTO VIEW. BY THIS STATEMENT I AM TRYING TO POINT OUT THAT THERE NO LIGHTING TO EITHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, I AM SURE (POSITIVE) THAT IF I WOULD HAVE BEEN MAKING A RIGHT TURN AN ACCIDENT WOULD HAVE HAPPEN. ARE THERE ANY RECALLS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM? IF NOT, I THINK THERE SHOULD ONE. BECAUSE IF SOMETHING LIKE THIS EXAMPLE I AM SUBMITTING TO YOU EVER HAPPENS, THE DRIVER WILL HELD RESPONSIBLE. AN IN MY CASE IT WILL BE BLAMED DUE TO MY AGE. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD ENOUGH. VERY DIM AND CANNOT EVEN TELL WHERE CUT OFF LINE IS. EVEN WITH FOG LIGHTS ON, IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. *TR

HEADLAMPS DO NOT ADEQUATELY LIGHT UP ROAD. VERY UNSAFE. DEALER WON'T HELP. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK PROVIDE INADEQUATE LIGHTING, INCLUDING BOTH LOW BEAMS AND HIGH BEAMS. ANY NIGHT DRIVING IS DIFFICULT DUE TO LIMITED VISIBILITY, THERE SIMPLY IS NOT ENOUGH ILLUMINATION TO SEE. CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS - ESPECIALLY AT SPEEDS ABOVE 35 MPH OR DURING PRECIPITATION. THE HEADLIGHT HAS A SEVERE DESIGN FLAW WITH GMS APPROACH AT A SHUTTER SYSTEM. THIS TYPE OF DESIGN DOES NOT LEAVE ANY OPTIONS FOR SIMPLY CHANGING THE TYPE OF BULB - THE DESIGN IS ACTUALLY AT FAULT FOR THE POOR VISIBILITY. THE VISIBILITY PROBLEMS SIMPLY CANNOT BE FIXED WITH A DIFFERENT BULB TYPE DUE TO THE SHUTTER DESIGN TYPE. MANY COMPLAINTS ARE BEING REGISTERED ONLINE RELATED TO THE VISIBILITY PROBLEM. THESE TRUCKS ARE NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. IF THERE IS A STANDARD FOR MINIMUM HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATION FOR NIGHT TIME DRIVING, THIS MODEL HEADLIGHT NEEDS TO BE REVIEWED IF IT IS MEETING THE MINIMUM STANDARD. NOT SAFE, A DEFINITE PROBLEM THAT NEEDS ATTENTION. *TR

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE JULY 2013. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY INADEQUATE AND A HAZARD TO DRIVING. THE INADEQUATE LIGHTING HAS CAUSED ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION DUE TO THE EXTREME CURVATURE OF THE ROAD AND THE LACK OF ADEQUATE LIGHTING TO SEE THE CURVE AHEAD. THE HEADLIGHTS ALSO DO NOT AFFORD YOU TIME TO SEE ROAD HAZARDS IN THE ROADWAY. GM NEEDS TO DESIGN A FIX FOR THIS DANGEROUS DEFECT. THE *TR

HEADLIGHTS ARE A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS TRUCK. CAN NOT SEE THE SIDES OF THE ROAD AND THE ROADWAY IS VERY DIM. I HAVE CONTACTED GM MANY TIMES WITH NO ANSWER TO THE PROBLEM. ONE TIME THEY SAID, TURN ON THE FOG LIGHTS WHEN YOU ARE ABOUT TO TURN A CORNER. *TR

HEADLIGHT OUTPUT IS HORRIBLE AT NIGHT TIME DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT IS FLAT OUT DANGEROUS. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ONLY ADEQUATE FOR CITY DRIVING AT NIGHT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE HEAD LAMP HIGH BEAMS WERE TURNED ON, BUT FAILED TO ILLUMINATE ADEQUATELY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE FOR NIGHT DRIVING...VERY POOR VISIBILITY. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND IS A SAFETY CONCERN.. GM REFUSES TO CORRECT THIS VERY POOR VISIBILITY CAUSED BY THE HEADLIGHTS. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 ARE NOT ADEQUATE FOR NIGHT TIME RURAL DRIVING. ON 7 OCT 2014 AT APPROX. 5:30AM A DEER RAN INTO THE SIDE OF MY TRUCK HITTING JUST BEHIND THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT WHEEL BECAUSE I WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE IT IN TIME TO AVOID HITTING IT BECAUSE OF THE POOR HEADLIGHT LIGHTING DESIGN OF THE TRUCK. IF THE HEADLIGHT LIGHTING DESIGN ON THE TRUCK WAS ADEQUATE I WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO AVOID HITTING THE DEER.THE LOW BEAMS DO NOT LIGHT UP THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD ENOUGH OR IN FRONT OF YOU FOR MORE THAN APPROX. 50' TO 75' (THAT'S PROBABLY BEING GENEROUS) AND THE HIGH BEAMS ARE JUST AS BAD AND POINT UP IN THE AIR. THE NHTSA SHOULD IMMEDIATELY DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS AND MAKE GM FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED OR IS THAT WHAT YOU ARE WAITING ON TO HAPPEN BEFORE YOU DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I KNOW YOU HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND SO HAS GM BUT TO DATE I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY ACTION TAKEN. IS THIS GONNA BE ANOTHER COVER UP BY GM WITH YOUR HELP BECAUSE BOTH YOU AND GM ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BEFORE YOU TAKE ACTION OR ARE YOU GONNA DO WHAT YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO DO AND KEEP US SAFE ON THE HIGHWAYS. IT WAS THE GOVT THAT BAILED THEM OUT WHEN THEY WERE GOING BANKRUPT NOT SO LONG AGO SO WHY ISN'T THE GOVT (NHTSA) HELPING THE PUBLIC NOW AND BAILING US OUT TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I WISH TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE. THEY ARE REALLY TERRIBLE. LOW BEAM DOES NOT PROJECT FAR ENOUGH, AND HIGH BEAM SEEMS TO ILLUMINATE ROAD SIGNS AT A DISTANCE, BUT NOT ADEQUATE FOR THEIR PURPOSE. SEEMS AS THEY ARE MORE OF A SPOTLIGHT THAN A HEADLIGHT. THESE ARE THE MOST UNSAFE HEADLIGHTS I HAVE EVER HAD IN 43 YEARS OF DRIVING. AGAIN, THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT THANKFULLY, AND I JUST WISH TO FILE MY COMPLAINT AND CONCERN. THANK YOU. *TR

I PURCHASED 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 ON OCTOBER 20TH 2014 AT THIS TIME IT HAS 1700 MILES ON IT. THE FIRST TIME OF MAYBE 3 TIMES THAT I DROVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT I WAS DISCOURAGED WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. I COULD BARELY SEE THE ROADWAY AND I COMMENTED TO MY FIANCE THAT THEY WERE TERRIBLE AND THAT I WAS AFRAID I WOULD HIT SOMETHING. I HAPPENED TO LOOK FOR RECALLS ON THE INTERNET AND NOTICED THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I AM SHOCKED THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. I AM HESITANT TO DRIVE IT AT NIGHT. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED. *TR

THERE TRULY IS NO ACCIDENT AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER ... IF THIS CONDITION ISN'T CORRECTED, THERE WILL BE ACCIDENTS. THESE MAY RESULT IN NOT ONLY LOSS OF LIFE OR PROPERTY, BUT POSSIBLE CRIMINAL PROSECUTION. THE ISSUE: THE PROJECTOR HEADLAMP DESIGN OF THE 2014 GMC SIERRA IS EXTREMELY SUBPAR FOR LIGHTING THE ROADWAY AHEAD OF YOU. INDIVIDUALS, IN ORDER TO NOT "OUTDRIVE" THEIR LIGHTS, WOULD PROBABLY HAVE TO GO BELOW POSTED MINIMUM SPEED LIMITS ON HIGHWAYS, PRESENTING YET ANOTHER ISSUE FOR THE DRIVER AS WELL AS THOSE WHO WOULD APPROACH FROM THE REAR IN NIGHTTIME DRIVING CONDITIONS. I CONTACTED GMC ... AWARE OF THE ISSUE. NO HELP AT THIS TIME. I GOT THE IMPRESSION FROM THE OPERATOR THAT "NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE FILED COMPLAINTS." I'M GUESSING THAT WHEN THE CATASTROPHIC AND TRAGIC HAPPENS, IT WILL NOT MATTER THAT NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE FILED COMPLAINTS ... OFFICIALLY. SLIGHT RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET WILL SHOW MANY INDIVIDUALS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE ISSUE. BUT GMC'S ADMISSION THAT THEY ARE "AWARE" BUT ARE TAKING NO ACTION AT THIS POINT IS VERY DISTURBING. I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT DESIGN ISSUES WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE CLEARED BY AN OVERSIGHT AGENCY OF SOME SORT? I JUST DISCOVERED THE EXTREMELY SCARY FEELING OF "DRIVING IN THE DARK" ... BASICALLY ... AFTER HAVING MY TRUCK SINCE THANKSGIVING. BUT I DRIVE MOSTLY IN THE DAYLIGHT, AND HAVE BEEN ON INTERSTATE 20 IN ONE OF THE BUSIEST SECTIONS WITH TRAFFIC AT NIGHT ... NOT REALIZING HOW MUCH OTHERS' LIGHTS WERE HELPING. WHEN DRIVING ALONE ON A RURAL ROAD, HOWEVER, IT IS TANTAMOUNT TO DRIVING WITH A FLASHLIGHT WHEN IT COMES TO SAFETY. I AM WANTING TO TRUST THAT THE AGENCY TASKED WITH SAFETY WILL PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE? BEFORE SOMEONE OR MULTIPLES LOSE THEIR LIVES AND LAWSUITS ENSUE? *TR

HEADLIGHT LIGHTING IS USELESS, NIGHT DRIVING IS DANGEROUS. LIGHT OUTPUT IS SO LOW/DIM THAT IT IS EASY TO OUT DRIVE THE HEADLIGHTS. HIGH BEAM IS NO BETTER AS IT JUST DISPERSES THE BEAM ACTUALLY MAKING IT APPEAR DIMMER. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO ADDRESS THIS CONCERN BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INJURED BY THESE UNSAFE HEADLIGHTS. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE HORRIBLE, LOW BEAMS ARE OF NO USE EXCEPT IN THE CITY TRAFFIC AND HIGH BEAMS ARE ONLY SLIGHTLY BETTER. HIGH BEAMS ARE NOT SUFFICIENT FOR DRIVING ON DARK ROADS. HOPEFULLY GM WILL OFFER TO REPAIR/REPLACE THESE BEFORE THERE ARE DEATHS TO REPORT.

HEADLIGHTS ARE INSUFFICIENT. DRIVING AT NIGHT AWAY FROM THE CITY IS DANGEROUS. BRIGHTER AND WIDER LIGHT PATTERNS ARE NEEDED. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE HORRIBLE. I CAN BARELY SEE THE ROAD OR SIDES OF THE ROAD. AT NIGHT CARS BEHIND/BESIDE ME FLOOD OUT MY LIGHTS. I HAVE THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TURNED COMPLETELY DOWN AND STILL THE LIGHTS ARE VERY WEAK AND DANGEROUS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE HEADLIGHTS WERE VERY DIM AND IMPAIRED THE VISION TO SEE THE ROAD. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58. UPDATED 04/13/15*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED ACCORDING TO BULLETIN PIT5374. THIS REQUIRED A BULB REPLACEMENT AND BCM REFLASH. UPDATED 10/30/2015 *JS

I'VE HAD MY 2014 GMC SIERRA FOR NEARLY A YEAR NOW, FIRST NIGHT I HAD IT I COULDN'T BELIEVE HOW POOR THE LIGHT OUTPUT WAS FROM THE HEADLIGHTS. I'VE HAD NUMEROUS GMC SIERRA TRUCKS OVER THE YEARS AND THIS TRUCK BY FAR HAS THE WORSE HEADLIGHTS I'VE EVER HAD IN A TRUCK. THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE ONLINE COMPLAINING, I'M DEFINITELY NOT THE ONLY ONE UPSET WITH HOW POOR THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE. THERE ARE A FEW GUYS IN TOWN WITH THIS SAME TRUCK THEY ALL HATE THE HEADLIGHTS TOO. THESE HEADLIGHTS JUST SEEM VERY DIM, THEY DON'T SHINE THE DITCHES UP VERY WELL, THEY DON'T SHINE AHEAD VERY FAR EITHER. I HAVE BETTER LUCK RUNNING THE HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM AND FOG LIGHTS ON, IT ALMOST SEEMS LIKE LESS LIGHT ON HIGH BEAM SO I RARELY HAVE THEM ON HIGH, I'VE HAD MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WHERE I NEARLY HIT A MOOSE, THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DANGEROUS I'M WORRIED THAT ONE OF THESE DAYS I'M GOING TO HIT A MOOSE OR WORSE A PERSON! I REALLY HOPE SOMEBODY DOES SOMETHING ABOUT THESE HEADLIGHTS GM DIDN'T LISTEN TO ANYTHING I HAD TO SAY. *TR

THE FACTORY HEADLIGHTS ARE ALMOST USELESS AT NIGHT ESPECIALLY IF THERE IS ANY MOISTURE ON THE ROADS . THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE AT DUSK AND DAWN AS WELL . *JS

THE LARGE 8" INTELLILINK RADIO SCREEN IN THIS TRUCK HAS SEPARATE BRIGHTNESS CONTROL FROM THE REST OF THE DASH LIGHTS, INCLUDING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. DUE TO IT'S SIZE AND COLORED BACKGROUND, THE LCD RADIO SCREEN IS MUCH BRIGHTER THAN THE REST OF THE INTERIOR LIGHTS. THE FACT THAT THE SYSTEM HAS NO NIGHT SCHEME, MEANING IT DOESN'T SHIFT TO A MOSTLY BLACK BACKGROUND AT NIGHT MAKES THIS PROBLEM EVEN WORSE. WHILE IT IS POSSIBLE TO LOWER THE BRIGHTNESS USING A DASH-MOUNTED DIMMER SWITCH, THE DIMMER MUST BE LOWERED TO MINIMUM IN ORDER TO GET THE RADIO SCREEN TO BE A COMFORTABLE BRIGHTNESS LEVEL FOR NIGHT DRIVING. AT THIS POINT, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS ARE SO DIM AS TO BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE AND AS A RESULT REQUIRE MUCH MORE TIME AND EFFORT TO READ SPEED INFORMATION. THE ONLY WAY TO COMPLETELY TURN OFF THE RADIO SCREEN IS TO GO THROUGH SEVERAL MENUS INTO SETTINGS AND MANUALLY TURN OFF THE SCREEN. NOT ONLY IS THIS A DANGEROUS DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING BUT IF ANY VEHICLE SETTING SUCH AS RADIO VOLUME, OR HVAC CONTROLS ARE ADJUSTED, THE SCREEN AUTOMATICALLY TURNS BACK ON AND THE PROCESS MUST BE REPEATED. I HAVE CONTACTED GM SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE DUE TO ITS DISTRACTING NATURE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT AND HAVE BEEN TOLD REPEATEDLY THAT THE SYSTEM IS "OPERATING AS DESIGNED." I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE BRIGHT LIGHT IN THE CAB RUINS NIGHT VISION WHILE ALSO DISTRACTING THE DRIVER'S EYES FROM THE ROAD. MY RECOMMENDATION IS FOR A SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THE INTELLILINK/RADIO SYSTEM TO BE DESIGNED TO ADD A BRIGHTNESS SETTING IN THE SYSTEM MENU TO ALLOW DRIVER'S TO SET THE RADIO SCREEN BRIGHTNESS INDEPENDENTLY OF THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS AND TO ALSO PROGRAM A "NIGHT MODE" COLOR SCHEME THAT WOULD SHIFT FROM THE BLUE ILLUMINATED BACKGROUND USED IN THE DAYTIME TO SOMETHING THAT IS MOSTLY BLACK. *JS

THE PROJECTOR STYLE HEADLIGHTS THIS TRUCK IS EQUIPPED WITH ARE INSUFFICIENT FOR SAFE NIGHT DRIVING WHEN NOT IN A CITY DRIVING CONDITION. THE LOW-BEAMS ARE SATISFACTORY FOR LOWER SPEEDS (IE <45MPH) BUT ARE EXTREMELY EASY TO OUT-DRIVE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE BEAM PATTERN IS ALSO NOT WIDE ENOUGH TO ILLUMINATE ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE AREA DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE HIGH BEAMS ARE EVEN WORSE. THE HEADLIGHTS IN THIS TRUCK USE ONE SINGLE FILAMENT BULB FOR EACH HEADLIGHT. WHEN THE HIGH BEAMS ARE TURNED ON, A MECHANICAL SHUTTER OPENS TO ALLOW MORE LIGHT THROUGH THE PROJECTOR LENS. THE LENS IS DESIGNED SUCH THAT THIS ADDITIONAL LIGHT IS AIMED SO HIGH AS TO BE USELESS. PARKED 20FT FROM A WALL, THE CENTER OF THE HIGH BEAM PATTER IS ALREADY SEVERAL FT ABOVE THE BULB LEVEL ON THE WALL. WHEN DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT AND LEVEL ROAD WITH NO TREES, IT IS ACTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO EVEN TELL THE HIGH BEAMS ARE ON SINCE THERE IS NO EXTRA BEAM TO ILLUMINATE THE SIDES OF THE ROAD AND THE CENTER BEAM IS POINTED UP INTO THE TREES. *JS

HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION FOR NIGHT DRIVING. SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY HAZARD TO OCCUPANTS AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. POOR DESIGN AND/OR SPECIFICATIONS ON GM'S PART TO ALLOW THE USAGE OF THIS HEADLAMP CONFIGURATION ON ANY VEHICLE ON THE ROAD TODAY. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND RESOLVED ASAP. *JS

THIS IS MY FIRST TIME TO HAVE A VEHICLE WITH PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS. THEY DO NOT LIGHT UP THE SIDES OF ROAD, AND ARE NOT VERY BRIGHT IN DIM OR HIGH BEAM. THIS IS NOT VERY SAFE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, EVEN WHEN THE WEATHER IS GOOD. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER VEHICLE WITH THESE TYPE OF HEADLIGHTS. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS 2014 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND IMPAIRED THE CONTACTS VISION OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20.

THESE ARE THE WORST HEADLIGHTS. I LIVE IN RURAL ALABAMA AND CANT SEE EDGES OF ROAD OR MORE THAN 50' AHEAD. CANT CHANGE THE BULB TO IMPROVE IT. VERY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT FOR ME AND ANYONE ELSE ON THE ROAD! *TR

WHEN I FIRST STARTED DRIVING MY NEW 14 GMC I HAD NEVER HAD A TRUCK WITH PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS SO I WAS UNSURE IF IT WAS JUST ME THAT HAD TO ADJUST TO THE BEAM OF LIGHT THEY PROVIDE OR IF IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTING ITSELF. AFTER HAVING DRIVEN MY 14 SILEVRADO WORK TRUCK WITH STANDARD LIGHTS I REALIZE THERE IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THE GMC PROJECTOR LIGHTS THEY ARE SO BAD IT MAKES YOU THINK THERE IS A FAULTY GROUND WIRE OR SOMETHING EXTRA ORDINARY WRONG WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. IT IS SO BAD THAT I EVEN LOOKED INTO UPGRADING THE BULBS BUT YOU CAN'T EVEN DO THAT BECAUSE PHILIPS OWNS THE RIGHTS TO PRODUCE THEM AND WANTS TO OVER CHARGE THE AFTERMARKET FOR THE USE OF THE DESIGN, SO I AM STUCK WITH A HEADLIGHT SYSTEM THAT IS WORSE THEN A 6V HEADLIGHT FROM THE 40S. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE HORRIBLE. DRIVING ON ROADS WITH NO STREET LIGHTS IS DANGEROUS. THE HIGH BEAMS DO NOTHING AT ALL EXCEPT LIGHT UP TREE TOPS. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ADEQUATELY ILLUMINATE THE ROAD. THERE IS NO LIGHT TO THE SIDE OF ROAD. I CAME VERY CLOSE TO DRIVING INTO A DITCH. WHEN DRIVING DOWN OR UP GRADES THE ROAD IS IN COMPLETE DARKNESS. NO DISCERNIBLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIGH AND LOW BEAMS. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING ON UNLIT COUNTRY ROADS NEAR MY HOME IN UPSTATE NY. WHEN RAINING THE PROBLEM IS EVEN WORSE. THE HEADLAMPS ON ALL 4 OF MY PREVIOUS GM TRUCKS 9JIMMYS, YUKON AND SUBURBAN) WERE FAR SUPERIOR TO THOSE ON MY NEW $55,000 SIERRA. THIS TRUCK SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN AT NIGHT BUT THAT'S UNAVOIDABLE, SOMEONE'S GOING TO BE HURT OR KILLED!!! *TR

MY COMPLAINT IS WITH THE HOW DIM THE OEM HEADLIGHTS ARE. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO GMC REGARDING THE HEADLIGHTS AND THE RESPONSE IS THAT THEY ARE OK WITH HOW DIM THE LIGHTS ARE. COMPARED TO OTHER VEHICLES I OWN/HAVE OWNED THE HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM TO THE POINT OF BEING DANGEROUS. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT LIGHT THE ROAD. NO LIGHT ON THE SIDE OF ROAD. I HAVE MISSED MY DRIVEWAY AND CAME VERY CLOSE TO DRIVING INTO A DITCH. WHEN DRIVING DOWN OR UP GRADES THE ROAD IS IN COMPLETE DARKNESS. I HAVE GAVE GM A YEAR TO FIX THE SAFETY ISSUE BUT THEY DO NOTHING IS CORRECT THE PROBLEM. WHEN RAINING THE PROBLEM IS TEN TIMES GREATER. THIS TRUCK SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN AT NIGHT, PEOPLE WILL GET INJURED OR KILLED. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. LIKE HAVING NONE AT ALL. HIGH BEAMS ARE USELESS. I ACTUALLY HAD TO FOLLOW OTHER VEHICLES LIGHTS TO KEEP FROM RUNNING OFF THE ROAD. *TR

THE HEADLAMPS ARE TOTALLY INADEQUATE FOR NIGHT DRIVING THUS PRODUCING A VERY SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE . THERE IS ZERO LIGHTING ON BOTH SIDES ON LOW BEAM AND VERY POOR DOWN ROAD VISION ON HIGHBEAM. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON LINE AND THEY ARE ALL WITH THE SAME ISSUES. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE CHEAP ONE BULB LENS SYSTEM WITH A SHUTTER ON THE LENS. HAVE COMPLAINED TO DEALER WHO ACKNOWLEDGED THERE IS A PROBLEM AND TO GM WHO REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS A PROBLEM . GM RESPONSE TO ME WAS THE LAMPS WORK AS DESIGNED AND I RESPONDED THAT IS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM, THE DESIGN WHICH PRODUCES VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS $50K TRUCK ARE JUST PLAIN UNACCEPTABLE! FINALLY TOOK IN TO THE DEALER AS THE BRIGHTS WERE "RACCOON HUNTING" BUT THE DIM SETTING IS ALMOST NO LIGHT AT ALL. LIVING IN A RURAL AREA, I HAVE TO DECREASE MY SPEED TO NEARLY A CRAWL IN ORDER TO WATCH FOR OBSTACLES IN THE ROADWAY OR FOR WILDLIFE. I'VE OWNED 6 GMC VEHICLES (SIERRA OR YUKON) SINCE 2000 AND NONE OF THEM HAD THE POOR AND DANGEROUS LIGHTING THAT THIS 2014 SIERRA HAS. WHEN THE DEALER ADJUSTED, THE DIMS ARE NOW POINTING DOWN TO THE ROAD ABOUT 30' FROM THE BUMPER AND THE HIGH BEAMS ARE BOTH POINTING AT THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ABOUT 75-100' WITH NO LATERAL LIGHTING AT ALL. IT'S SO BAD, I HAVE TO MAKE WIDE TURNS TO LIGHT UP THE DRIVEWAYS OR STREETS I'M TURNING INTO TO KEEP FROM RUNNING INTO DITCHES OR MISS THE TURN ALL TOGETHER. ON A 55MPH STRAIGHT ROAD, YOU CAN OUT RUN YOU LIGHTS! THE FOGS HELP THE LATERAL VISION A TINY BIT BUT THEY ARE NOT ALL THAT GOOD EITHER. GMC NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS OR RISK PAYING OUT ON A BIG LAWSUIT OVER SOMEONE GETTING BADLY INJURED OR WORSE. *TR

THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS ARE INSUFFICIENT FOR SAFETY. THEY DO NOT LIGHT THE ROAD SUFFICIENT TO SEE OBJECTS IN ROAD ABOVE A SPEED OF 50 MPH. THESE ARE SINGLE BULB PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS AND MY OLD 2001 CHEVY SILVERADO HAS MUCH BETTER LIGHTS. GMC SHOULD REPLACE THE LIGHTS WITH DUAL BEAM LIGHTS OR ADD ON A SUPPLEMENTAL LIGHT SYSTEM. *TR

I HAVE TWO 2014 GMC SIERRAS WITH VERY WEAK HEADLIGHTS. CALLED GM AND THEY SAID NOBODY HAS COMPLAINED. THEY LIED. WAKE UP GM AND SMELL THE ROSES BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED. THE HEADLIGHTS LOOK GREAT BUT WORK BAD. FEEL LIKE IT WILL BE FOREVER BEFORE THEY DO ANYTHING SO I ADDED MY OWN AUX. LIGHTS. MY I CAN SEE AGAIN. SPENT 400.00 DOLLARS ON 45,000 DOLLAR TRUCK SO I CAN DRIVE SAFETY AT NIGHT. 2014 CHEVYS HAVE DUEL HEADLIGHTS. MUST BE BETTER. FIX THE PROBLEM GM. MY FIRST CAR, A 1962 COMET HAD BETTER LIGHTS.

I DISCOVERED ONLY AFTER BUYING THIS VEHICLE THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, AND CLEARLY AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY HAZARD. THEY ARE A "NEW" PROJECTOR BULB STYLE - SINGLE BULB WITH NO INDEPENDENT HIGH BEAM. THE LIGHT IS DIM ON BOTH HIGH AND LOW BEAMS, VERY NARROW, AND WHEN THE LOW BEAMS ARE AT THE RIGHT HEIGHT THE HIGH BEAMS ARE UP IN THE AIR. I THOUGHT AT FIRST THEY WERE JUST POORLY ADJUSTED, BUT THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO IMPROVE THE SITUATION. THEY DID NOT REVEAL TO ME THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS OWNER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE LIGHTS, EASILY FOUND BY DOING AN INTERNET SEARCH. THERE SHOULD BE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL AND FIX ON THESE LIGHTS. ACCORDING TO INTERNET REPORTS, THE TRADITIONAL TWO INDIVIDUAL BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO ARE APPARENTLY FINE. *TR

OF ALL THE VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED, THIS 2014 GMC HAS THE WORST HEADLIGHTS OF THEM ALL.. $47,000 AND BASICALLY A BIC LIGHTER ON THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK FOR LIGHTS.. WHILE OUT DRIVING ON MY WAY BACK FROM FORT KENT, WITH THE TRUCK ON HIGH BEAM I NEARLY HIT A MOOSE THAT I DIDN'T SEE UNTIL I WAS RIGHT ON IT DUE TO NOT HAVING ENOUGH LIGHT DOWN THE ROAD.. HAVE TO DRIVE 40 NOT TO OUTRUN THE HEADLIGHTS. VERY VERY FRUSTRATING AND THE DEALER TELLS US THAT GM KNOWS ABOUT IT BUT HAS NO FIX.. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN TOWN AT 25 MPH, ALMOST HIT A PEDESTRIAN WHO WAS CROSSING THE ROAD DUE TO INSUFFICIENT HEADLAMPS ON THE TRUCK. THIS WAS EVER WITH THE FOG LAMPS ON WHICH SEEM TO PUT OUT MORE LIGHT THEN THE HEADLIGHTS.. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS... HAVE TO RELY ON THE STREET LAMPS TO SEE WHERE WE ARE GOING WHEN DRIVING IN TOWN.. DISAPPOINTED TO MY WITS END THAT THE DEALER TELLS ME THAT THERE ISN'T ANY FIX FOR THIS YET. *TR

NO ACCIDENT. (YET) HEAD LIGHTS ARE PATHETIC. RANGE OF VISION AT NIGHT IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. THERE IS NO DIFFUSION OF LIGHT. ONLY LIGHT IS ON A STRAIGHT HORIZONTAL LINE. CAUSES A VERY TENSE DRIVING SITUATION ON ANY DARK ROAD. THE LIGHTING ON THE PERIPHERY IS VIRTUALLY NON-EXISTENT BUT MARGINALLY IMPROVED IF FOG LIGHTS ARE LEFT ON ALL THE TIME. MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN FILED. CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY GMC HAS NOT BEEN COMPELLED TO HAVE A RECALL TO COME UP WITH A REAL SOLUTION. IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A QUESTION OF ADJUSTING THE CURRENT LIGHTING ARRANGEMENT. THIS SHOULD BE A PRIORITY RECALL. DANGEROUS TO DRIVE VEHICLE AT NIGHT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ON VEHICLE FAILED TO ILLUMINATE PROPERLY. THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND IMPAIRED THE CONTACT'S VISION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE UNSAFE. THEY DO NOT PUT OUT ENOUGH LIGHT ON DARK NIGHTS AND ESPECIALLY ON NIGHTS WERE THERE IS RAIN. THEY DO NOT REACH BEYOND THE EDGE OF THE ROAD WAY PAST THE FOG LINES,. OR EXTEND THAT FAR UP THE ROAD IN FRONT OF THE TRUCK. *TR

THE HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE ON THIS TRUCK IS THE WORST I'VE SEEN IN ANY VEHICLE, BUT FOR A TRUCK, I CANNOT BELIEVE THEY ARE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD AT NIGHT. THE OWNER'S MANUAL STATES THEY ARE FACTORY SET AND DO NOT NEED ADJUSTMENT. THAT INFORMATION WAS OBVIOUSLY NOT CHECKED DURING THE QUALITY CHECK OR CHECKED BUT FELT IT WAS AS GOOD AS IT GETS. ON HIGH BEAM, THE DRIVER'S SIDE LIGHT IS POINTING SO FAR UP, IT'S IN THE TREES AND ABOVE THE ROAD. THE RIGHT SIDE HIGH AND LOW BEAMS ARE INADEQUATE FOR ALL PURPOSES, ESPECIALLY SEEING AROUND CURVES AND TURNS. YOU ARE LITERALLY BLIND ON A DARK STREET, EVEN WITH THE FOG LIGHTS. VERY POOR ILLUMINATION OF THE ROAD. I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO THE DEALER FOR ADJUSTMENT AND THEY DID NOT CHANGE ANYTHING. THIS WILL BE THE LAST GM PRODUCT I BUY SINCE IT SEEMS THE LAST THREE VEHICLES I'VE OWNED HAD ISSUES THAT COULD NOT BE RESOLVED. AND I AM A MEMBER OF THE GM FAMILY. FOR THE PRICE OF THESE VEHICLES, THEY SHOULD BE TOP QUALITY. GM SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THE QUALITY THEY DELIVER TO CUSTOMERS FOR VEHICLES PRICED OVER $45K. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM IN 2014 GMC SIERRA. TO THE POINT OF DANGEROUS TO PEDESTRIANS AND WILDLIFE. THE LIGHTS HINDER THE ABILITY OF DRIVERS TO SEE AND AVOID ANYTHING THAT MAY WONDER INTO THE VEHICLES PATH. BY THE TIME THE HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATE THE OBJECT IT'LL BE TOO LATE! "SAVE SOME LIFE", PERSUADE GENERAL MOTORS TO FIX FUTURE VEHICLES AND POSSIBLY RECALL EXISTING ONES. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY POOR. I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS AND THE LACK OF NIGHT VISION WITH THE 2014 SIERRA IS THE WORST OF ANY CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. I USED TO WORK ON MY FAMILY FARM BACK IN THE 1980S AND OUR OLD TRACTORS AND COMBINES HAD BETTER NIGHT VISIBILITY THAN MY BRAND NEW SIERRA. GMC, YOU MUST FIX THIS NOW! I GUARANTEE YOU WILL HAVE A MAJOR LAWSUIT ON YOUR HANDS IF YOU DON'T. THIS IS SUCH A SIMPLE THING TO GET RIGHT, DO THE RIGHT THING AND RECALL ALL THESE VEHICLES AND INSTALL PROPER HEADLIGHTS. *TR

WANTED TO UPDATE INFO ON THIS COMPLAINT. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT W/DEALER AND THEY HAVE AGREED TO REPLACE BOTH HEADLIGHTS, EVEN THOUGH THEY CONSIDER THIS TO BE ABNORMAL, WITH THE AGREEMENT THAT IF IT HAPPENS ON NEW HEADLIGHTS THEY WILL CONSIDER IT NORMAL AND DO NOTHING MORE! I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT OBSCURES THE LIGHT AND ALSO THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO BULLY ME INTO AN AGREEMENT I DON'T AGREE WITH. MY VEHICLE HAS A BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY AND THEY ARE TRYING TO EXCLUDE THIS ISSUE IN THE FUTURE IF I AGREE TO HAVE THE HEADLIGHTS REPLACED NOW. I HAVE CONTACTED GMC REGARDING THIS AND HAVE YET TO HEAR BACK FROM THEM. *TR

HEADLIGHTS APPEARED TO BE LEAKING, CONDENSATION AND WATER DROPLETS. TOOK TO DEALER FOR OIL CHANGE AND ADVISED THEM OF THE HEADLIGHT ISSUE. WAS TOLD THEY WERE NOT LEAKING THAT THE DESIGN OF HEADLIGHTS CAUSED THIS, BULBS BURN SO HOT THEY HAVE A VENT FOR COOLING. BECAUSE OF THE AIR FLOW THROUGH VENT IT BRINGS IN CONDENSATION & WATER DROPLETS CAN FORM WHICH CAN TAKE 2 TO 6 HOURS TO CLEAR! WAS TOLD THAT THEY W/ONLY REPLACE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY, WHICH COSTS $900, IF ITS OVER 50% OF THE LENS. I WAS TOLD ONE HEADLIGHT WAS OVER 50% AND HAD WATER DROPLETS, AS WELL AS A HALO EFFECT AROUND THE BULB THAT HE HAD NEVER SEEN BEFORE. HOWEVER, DEALER DID NOTHING AT THE TIME AS THE LENS WAS CLEARING UP. I ASKED ABOUT THE CONDENSATION OBSCURING THE LIGHT OUTPUT AND THEREFORE MY VISION AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD NOT AFFECT IT. AFTER READING THE OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE HEADLIGHTS I FEEL THIS MAY BE PART OF THE PROBLEM. IF THE LENS IS COVERED INSIDE W/CONDENSATION & WATER DROPLETS, IT DOES AFFECT THE LIGHT OUTPUT. I LIVE IN THE PACIFIC NW WHERE IT RAINS 9 MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR AND THEREFORE WE HAVE MOISTURE IN THE AIR ALL THE TIME! I AM NOW DOCUMENTING THE CONDENSATION W/PICTURES OF THE HEADLIGHTS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT...UPDATED 12/30/14*BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE CONDENSATION WAS IN THE FORM OF FOG. UPDATED 01/12/15

HEADLIGHTS ON HIGH BEAM WERE AIMED TO HIGH & POINTED UP INTO THE TREES. LOW BEAMS SEEMED OK. I FINALLY TOOK TO A LOCAL DEALER FOR SOME RECALLS AND TALKED TO THEM ABOUT COMPLAINTS AND THEY ADJUSTED SAYING THE LIGHTS WERE AIMED TO HIGH. DROVE VEHICLE YESTERDAY AND THE LOW BEAMS NOW HAVE SO LITTLE PROJECTION FORWARD THAT I'M AFRAID AT NIGHT, IF ANYTHING CAME IN FRONT OF ME, I'D HIT IT BEFORE BEING ABLE TO STOP. WILL BE TAKING IT BACK TO HAVE LIGHTS ADJUSTED UP AGAIN AND LIVE WITH IT UNTIL GMC DOES SOMETHING. REASON IT HAS TAKEN SO LONG TO FILE COMPLAINT IS I DO NOT DRIVE MUCH AT NIGHTS AND DID NOT THINK OF FILING COMPLAINT UNTIL I FOUND THIS WEBSITE AND READING OTHER OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND CAUSED POOR VISIBILITY OF THE ROAD. THE DEALER ADJUSTED THE HEADLIGHTS HIGHER; HOWEVER, THE VISIBILITY WORSENED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AT NIGHT, THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND CAUSED POOR VISIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

HEADLIGHTS ARE WORTHLESS. ON LOW BEAM LESS THAN 95' OF FORWARD AREA LITE UP. AT 55 MPH, THAT GIVES YOU ABOUT A SECOND FOR REACTION TIME. JUST A LITTLE BETTER ON HIGH BEAM. PERIPHERAL LIGHTING IS WORSE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AFTER DARK, THE FRONT HALOGEN HEADLIGHTS BECAME DIM. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 700.

THE HEADLIGHTS (BOTH LOW AND HIGH BEAMS) ARE INEFFECTIVE AND INADEQUATE. THE FORWARD THROW IS BAD, BUT THE PERIPHERAL THROW IS EVEN WORSE. THERE IS ESSENTIALLY NO PERIPHERAL LIGHT AND THIS MAKES FOR VERY HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS WHEN NEGOTIATING A DARK CURVE. I AM CONSTANTLY CHECKING TO SEE IF THE HEADLIGHTS ARE OPERATING - EVEN WHEN THE 'ICON' ON THE DASHBOARD SAYS THEY ARE 'ON', IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW THAT THEY ARE WORKING DUE TO THE DIM OUTPUT. I DON'T SSE ANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE HEADLUGHTS ON THE CHEVROLET SILVERADO (SAME PLATFORM AS GMC SIERRA) - SO I ASSUME THAT GM CAN 'FIX' THIS SAFETY ISSUE IF THEY WANTED TO. *TR

POOR LIGHTING WITH HEADLIGHTS. CAN BARELY SEE WHAT IS AHEAD AT NIGHT. SEEMS LIKE THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS, AND I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY IN THE RAIN. TURNING ON FOG LIGHTS HELPS A LITTLE, BUT YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CONSTANTLY RUN THEM. BRIGHT LIGHTS DON'T HELP MUCH EITHER. *TR

BOUGHT VEHICLE NEW IN MARCH '14, HEADLIGHTS ARE HID UNITS, AND ARE WORSE THAN POOR. VERY EASY TO OVERDRIVE THESE LIGHTS HERE ON DARK, TWISTY MOUNTAIN ROADS IN WV. WE HAVE THE HIGHEST RATE OF VEHICLE- DEER COLLISIONS IN THE US AND SEEING DEER WITH THESE LIGHTS IN TIME TO AVOID A COLLISION IS CHANCY. TRADED A 10 YEAR OLD SAME MAKE AND MODEL AND NEVER HAD THESE PROBLEMS. THESE LIGHTS NEED TO BE CORRECTED BEFORE FOLKS ARE KILLED AS A RESULT. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ON 2014 SIERRA 1500 ARE HORRIBLE. DO NOT PROJECT VERY FAR DOWN THE ROAD AND THE BRIGHTS DO NOT DO ANYTHING BUT LIGHT UP THE TOPS OF TREES. AT DUSK, DAWN, OR WHEN RAINING IS PARTICULARLY BAD. ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION DRIVING IN SMALL TOWNS OR IN TRAFFIC I THOUGHT THE LIGHTS WERE ACTUALLY OFF THEY ARE SO DIM. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SHORTLY AFTER I GOT THE TRUCK IN SEPTEMBER OF 2013 AND THEY SAID THEY ADJUSTED THEM BUT IT DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. I HAVE CONTINUED TO HAVE PROBLEMS AND IT SEEMS LIKE THEY ARE GETTING EVEN DIMMER NOW. VERY DISAPPOINTED...SOMEONE IS GOING TO HAVE A WRECK ONE OF THESE DAYS BECAUSE OF THESE AS YOU CANNOT SEE WHAT IS IN THE ROAD 100 FEET AHEAD. AT 55 MPH THAT COULD BE A DEATH SENTENCE. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 ARE VERY VERY DIM. BOTH LOW BEAM AND HIGH BEAM MAKE IT VERY DIFFIUCULT TO SEE VERY FAR IN FRONT. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING GM TRUCKS FOR OVER 50 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTERED LIGHTING SO TERRIBLE. WITH THE DEER IN PENNA. MOVING AT NIGHT THIS TIME OF YEAR I AM AT TIMES RELUCTANT TO GO OVER 35MPH. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT GM HAS NOT MADE SOME KIND OF CHANGE TO THEIR HEADLIGHT SYSTEM NOTING THE MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS. I DID TEST DRIVE THE TRUCK BUT OF COURSE NOT AT NIGHT, IT CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE BEEN A DEAL BREAKER KNOWING WHAT I KNOW NOW. THAT IS HOW BAD THEY ARE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PRODUCT AND EMPLORE THE NHTSA TO FORCE A RECALL OF THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE LOOKED INTO REPLACEMENT BULBS WITH MUCH HIGHER INTENSITY. NOTHING IS AVAILABLE OTHER THAN THE STANDARD. PLEASE TAKE ACTION! *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS THE WORST HEADLIGHTS OF ANY NEW VEHICLE I'VE EVER OWNED. IT SEEMS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT, AND I AVOID IT WHERE I CAN. THE BEAM PATTERN IS AWFUL AND THE ILLUMINATION IS POOR. I'VE BEEN DRIVING CARS WITH PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS FOR YEARS, SO I KNOW THAT IS NOT THE REAL ISSUE. THESE LIGHTS ARE JUST POORLY DESIGNED OR CHEAP. TRIPS TO THE DEALER ARE UNFRUITFUL. THE DEALER KNOWS THEY ARE POOR, BUT CAN DO NOTHING EXCEPT BE SURE EVERYTHING IS PROPERLY ADJUSTED. IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT BUYING A 2014 GMC PICKUP, BUY SOMETHING ELSE. THEY ARE THAT BAD. I JUST KNOW I'M GOING TO HIT A DEER SOON ENOUGH. *TR

THESE HEAD LIGHTS ARE SO BAD YOU CAN ONLY SEE 50 FEET IN FRONT OF YOU ON LOW BEAM AT BEST AND ON HIGH BEAM THE LIGHTS SEEM TO SHINE ARE IN THE TREES. I AM SO SORRY I DID NOT TEST DRIVE AT NIGHT. PLEASE HELP FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT.MY 2011 SIERRA WAS 100 % BETTER. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE NEW 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 ARE INCREDIBLY DIM. THEY DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD SUFFICIENTLY AND ARE DANGEROUS. RURAL ROADS ARE PRACTICALLY A NO-GO AT NIGHT BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING IN DISTANCE OR ON THE SIDES OF THE ROAD. MAKING TURNS AT NIGHT ARE INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS. I FEEL THE NEED TO SWAP TO A BETTER LIGHT BUT THERE ARE NO OPTIONS THAT WON'T VOID MY WARRANTY BY GOING AFTERMARKET. THIS IS A SERIOUS CONCERN FOR ME. HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. NOTHING THAT DEALERSHIP CAN DO SINCE THERE ARE NO ALTERNATE LIGHTS OTHER THAN AFTERMARKET. *TR

HEADLIGHTS IN NORMAL OPERATION SITUATION ARE WOEFULLY SHORT OF ILLUMINATION DISTANCE AND EASY TO OVERDRIVE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. HIGH BEAMS AND FOG LIGHTS ARE MORE ADEQUATE, HOWEVER HIGH BEAMS CANNOT BE USED IN TRAFFIC AND FOG LIGHTS TEND TO IRRITATE ONCOMING DRIVERS ON HIGHWAYS IN SMALLER VEHICLES. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500, THAT I BOUGHT LAST WEEK, ARE EXTREMELY WEAK. THEY HAVE NO PROJECTION TO THE SIDES OF THE ROAD AND ONLY PROJECT FORWARD MAYBE 30 FT. AT 55 MPH AT NIGHT IS ASKING FOR AN ACCIDENT TO HAPPEN. I HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT IN RAIN OR SNOW YET AND NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. GM NEEDS A RECALL BEFORE WINTER SETS IN. *TR

I WOULD LIKE TO ALERT GM THAT THE ILLUMINATION FROM THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 SLT IS IN MY OPINION, INSUFFICIENT AND DANGEROUS. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS SINCE PURCHASING MY VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER 2014, I HAVE HAD TO DOUBLE CHECK TO SEE IF MY HEADLIGHTS WERE ON WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE PATTERN OF ILLUMINATION EMITTED FROM THE HEADLIGHTS DOES NOT PROVIDE THE VEHICLE OPERATOR WITH AN ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF LIGHTING, ESPECIALLY ON THE SIDES OF THE ROAD TO PREVENT POTENTIAL COLLISIONS WITH BICYCLISTS AND WALKING PEDESTRIANS. I HAPPEN TO LIVE IN A SOMEWHAT RURAL AREA, THAT REQUIRES DRIVING ON ROADS AND HIGHWAYS THAT DO NOT HAVE ADEQUATE STREET LIGHTING AND IN SOME AREAS NO STREET LIGHTS AT ALL. THIS PROBLEM OF POOR QUALITY HEADLIGHTS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN MY OPINION. *TR

IT WAS THE FIRST TIME I DROVE THIS NEW GMC AT NIGHT AND I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING ALMOST HIT A HUGE MOOSE CAUSE I DIDN'T SEE IT. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE AWFUL AND ITS TERRIFYING TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. WENT TO DEALER AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE HEADLIGHTS THEY SAID THEY HAD NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS BUT GM HAS NO FIX. THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE GOING TO CAUSE MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS SIMPLY DRIVING 45 MPH FEELS LIKE YOU CAN OUT RUN THE HEADLIGHTS IN HIGH BEAM. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO GOOD, THEY HELPED TO SAVE THE LIFE OF SEVERAL DEER WHICH I COULD CLEARLY SEE UP AHEAD, JUST ABOVE THE CREST OF THE ROAD. THE DEER STARTED TO DASH ACROSS THE ROAD, WHICH WAS NOT LIT, AND I COULD CLEARLY SEE THEM AND PROPERLY STEERED CLEAR OF THE DEER. THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE THE BEST I HAVE EVER HAD !! I FIND THE 2014 GMC SIERRA AS THE MOST WELL EQUIPPED VEHICLE I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. MY COMPLAINT IS NOT REALLY ABOUT THE LIGHTS OR HOW WELL I COULD SEE THE DEER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, IT'S ABOUT THE NEED FOR OTHER BRANDS OF VEHICLES THAT ARE NOT EQUIPPED WITH THESE TYPE OF HEADLIGHTS. I BELIEVE THIS TYPE OF HEADLIGHT SYSTEM SHOULD BE MANDATORY ON ALL VEHICLES OF ALL MAKES. GMC HAS DONE THE WORLD A FAVOR. NOW IT IS UP TO THE REST TO CATCH UP AND USE THIS TECHNOLOGY! *TR

AFTER PURCHASING OUR NEW TRUCK, WE DROVE IT FOR THE FIRST TIME AFTER DARK ON OUR RURAL COUNTRY ROADS. WHEN ENGAGING THE DIM LIGHTS YOU CAN NOT SEE MORE THAN 20 TO 30 YARDS IN FRONT OF YOUR VEHICLE. MY HUSBAND HAS DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH ON THIS PROBLEM SINCE WE DISCOVERED IT AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS. WHEN ENGAGING THE BRIGHT LIGHTS THEY APPEAR TO SHINE THE DISTANCE THAT THE DIM LIGHTS SHOULD. WE FEEL THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS ENGINEERING FLAW IN THE GM LIGHTING SYSTEM ON THEIR GMC TRUCKS. HE HAS DISCOVERED THAT THEY HAVE INSTALLED A PROJECTOR LIGHT WITH A CURTAIN OR SHUTTER IN THIS LIGHTING SYSTEM. WE HAVE HAD THEM ADJUSTED ONCE BY THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY MADE IT WORSE NOT BETTER. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT UNTIL GM IS MADE TO CHANGE THE LIGHTING SYSTEM AND REMOVE THIS CURTAIN/SHUTTER SYSTEM THAT WE ARE STUCK WITH THIS. OUR ONLY ALTERNATIVE SEEMS TO BE TO DRIVE WITH OUR BRIGHT LIGHTS ON AT ALL TIMES AFTER DARK IN RURAL AREAS. WE FEEL THAT THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND AT SOME POINT IN TIME THERE IS GOING TO BE A SERIOUS IF NOT FATAL ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. WE ARE HOPING THAT YOU WILL INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER AND TAKE ACTION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *TR

VEHICLE HAS VERY POOR HEADLIGHTS, MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM, AND DO NOT PROVIDE ILLUMINATION ON SHOULDERS OF ROADWAY. PROBABLY THE WORST HEADLIGHTS I HAVE SEEN IN OVER 20 YEARS. DEALER SAYS NOTHING CAN BE DONE TO CORRECT PROBLEM. SOMEONE NEEDS TO STEP IN AND FORCE GM TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. *TR

THE HEADLIGHT OUTPUT ON MY NEW 2014 GMC SIERRA IS SO BAD THAT I CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY AT NIGHT. IN FACT, I ONLY DRIVE IT UNLESS IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. NOT ONLY ARE THE LIGHTS VERY DIM BUT THE SHAPE OF THE BEAM IS ALSO VERY POOR AND AWKWARD . WITH THE CURRENT OEM HEADLIGHT EQUIPMENT, THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT . I CAN'T EVEN FIND A BETTER BULB BECAUSE GM HAS THE PATENT AND NOT EVEN PIAA CAN MAKE A BETTER BULB. *TR

2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 Z-71 PROJECTION HEADLIGHTS ARE WITH OUT A DOUBT A SAFETY HAZARD. NOT ONLY ARE THEY DIM BUT THEY DO NOT "PROJECT" FAR ENOUGH DOWN THE ROAD IN EITHER THE LOW OR HIGH BEAM MODES. UNSAFE BECAUSE ONE OVER DRIVES THE BEAM PROJECTED. UNSAFE BECAUSE ONE CANNOT SEE OFF TO THE SIDES WHERE DEER AND OTHER ANIMALS APPROACH SOMETIMES AT HIGH SPEEDS. THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THAT GENERAL MOTORS WILL HAVE TO CHANGE OUT THESE HEADLIGHTS EITHER SOONER OR LATER UNDER A RECALL. *TR

WHILE DRIVING FROM ALABAMA TO PENNSYLVANIA IN MY NEW GMC I HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO 15 MPH UNDER THE POSTED LIMIT DUE TO POOR ILLUMINATION OF THE ROAD. THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS SHINE NO WHERE ON THE ROAD. I ONCE ALMOST MISSED A TURN ON A ROAD I DRIVE DAILY, ON ANOTHER OCCASION I BARELY AVOIDED HITTING TWO DEER ASIDE THE ROAD BECAUSE THE LIGHTS BROADCAST CENTER OF ROAD AND DO NOT SHINE AT ALL LEFT OR RIGHT. TWO TRIPS TO THE DEALERSHIP HAVE PROVED USELESS, FIRST TRIP THEY WERE WILLING TO ADJUST LIGHTS, SECOND TRIP I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO FURTHER ADJUSTMENT POSSIBLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR A NEW VEHICLE THAT COST $45,000. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM YOU CAN NOT SEE STREET SIGNS OR THE SIDES OF THE ROAD CLEARLY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ON VEHICLE FAILED TO ILLUMINATE PROPERLY. THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND IMPAIRED THE CONTACTS VISION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 720.

FROM DAY ONE THE HEADLIGHTS ON OUR 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 VEHICLE ARE USELESS. THE DO NOT LIGHT UP AT ALL AND IS A VERY BAD SAFETY HAZARD FOR ALL. WE CAN DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD ON HIGH BEAM AND NO ONE WILL FLASH US AT ALL. WE HAVE NOTIFIED THE DEALER AND GMC AND SEEM TO GET NO WHERE. THEY SAID THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS FOR BAD VISABILITY WITH THE NEW SHUTTER HEADLIGHTS BUT GMC SAYS THEY LOOK PRETTY. WELL PRETTY DOES NOT HELP BEING ABLE TO SEE. I HAVE READ PAGES OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT HOW ANYONE THAT PURCHASED A 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 CANNOT SEE AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING AND AGAIN THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. THE 2014 GMC SIERRS 3500 HAS THE REGULAR HEADLIGHTS, WHY CANT THE 1500 HAVE THESE?? WE PAID $43,000 FOR THIS PICKUP AND CANT DRIVE IT AT NIGHT FOR THE FEAR OF HITTING ANIMALS, PEOPLE WALKING ETC. GMC SAYS OH WELL YOU BOUGHT IT YOUR FAULT, BUT WHO TAKES A TRIAL RIDE AT NIGHT?? IF WE COULD WE WOULD TRADE VEHICLE IN FOR A CHEVY, THEIR 2014 HAS REGULAR HEADLIGHTS. AGAIN I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT IS HAVING HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS PLEASE SEARCH FOR COMPLAINTS ON THIS MATTER AND YOU WELL SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING AND GMC IS NOT TAKING THIS SERIOUS AT ALL!! IF WE CRASH AT NIGHT DUE TO OUR LIGHTS, WHICH WHERE WE LIVE IN NORTHERN MAINE, WE WILL DEFINITELY BE PUTTING SOME LAWYERS IN ON THIS MATTER AND GOING AFTER SOMEONE FOR NOT ADDRESSING THIS SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

THE HEADLIGHT OUTPUT ON MY NEW 2014 GMC SIERRA IS SO POOR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY AT NIGHT. IN FACT, I DO NOT DRIVE IT AT ALL UNLESS IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. NOT ONLY ARE THE LIGHTS VERY DIM BUT THE SHAPE OF THE BEAM IS ALSO VERY POOR. WITH THE CURRENT OEM HEADLIGHT EQUIPMENT, THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT. *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2014 GMC SIERRA DO NOT SUPPLY ENOUGH LIGHT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. I WAS SHOCKED AT HOW LITTLE LIGHT THEY PUT OUT. IT IS ALMOST DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE FACT THAT VISIBILITY IS SO LIMITED. *TR

HEADLIGHT ARE EXTREMELY INADEQUATE!! VERY POOR VISIBILITY ESPECIALLY ON LOW BEAM! *TR

WORST HEADLIGHT FOR A NEW VEHICLE. I HAVE OWNED VARIOUS GM TRUCKS FROM 1967 TO 2014. NEVER HAVE I OWNED A TRUCK WITH SUCH WORTHLESS HEADLIGHTS LIKE THE PROJECTOR BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 WITH THE ALL TERRAIN PACKAGE. THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHT ARE VERY DIM AND DO NOT LIGHT THE ROAD MORE THAN 30 FEET AHEAD. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (55-70) THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS ARE ONLY LIGHTING A HALF SECOND AHEAD OF YOU. ADDITIONALLY THERE IS NO LIGHTING TO ILLUMINATE THE SHOULDER AT ALL.. YOU MUST DRIVE FULL TIME WITH THE FOG LAMPS ON TO HAVE A SMALL INCREASE IN LIGHTING. WHEN USING THE HIGH BEAMS THERE IS VERY LITTLE EFFECT ON VISIBILITY. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED IN THE 2014 GMC SIERRA. AND WILL UNLIKELY PURCHASE ANOTHER GM PRODUCT IN THE FUTURE. AT A MSRP OF OVER 50 GRAND I WOULD EXPECT A TRUCK TO HAVE ADEQUATE HEADLIGHT TO LIGHT THE ROAD. WITHOUT THE AFTERMARKET COST TO INSTALL BETTER LIGHTING THE 2014 GMC SIERRA IS VERY UNSAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT. *TR

HIGHWAY DRIVING AT NIGHT WHERE DEAR/VEHICLE COLLISIONS HAPPEN ON A DAILY (OR NIGHTLY) BASIS WITH THE POOR LIGHT OUTPUT OF THE HEADLIGHTS IN THE 2014 SIERRA IS, SIMPLY PUT, TO BE AVOIDED IN MY OPINION AS WELL AS ALL THOSE WHO HAVE RIDDEN WITH ME AT NIGHT. ONE ACTUALLY BELIEVED I WAS JOKING AND ASKED ME TO TURN THE REAL HEADLIGHTS ON, IF THAT SAYS ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT MY COMPLAINT IS ABOUT TODAY. I HAVE AVOIDED NIGHT DRIVING WITH THIS TRUCK IN FAVOR OF A SEDAN EQUIPPED WITH OEM "HIGH INTENSITY DISCHARGE" HEADLIGHTS EVEN THOUGH DEER REPRESENT MORE OF A SIGNIFICANT DANGER DUE TO THE HEIGHT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE SEDAN (NISSAN) AND THE PICKUP (14 SIERRA). I DO THIS BECAUSE WITH THE NISSAN'S HID HEADLIGHTS I AM CAPABLE OF SEEING THE DEER (OR PEDESTRIANS, DEBRIS, ETC) FROM AN ADEQUATE ENOUGH DISTANCE THAT ALLOWS ME TO SLOW WAY DOWN OR OTHERWISE ACT ACCORDINGLY. THAT IS NOT AN OPTION WITH THE 2014 GMC SIERRA AND IT'S PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS. WHILE THE SIERRA MAY PROVIDE ENOUGH LIGHT OUTPUT TO SUFFICE IN WELL LIT TOWNS AND ON WELL LIT ROADWAYS, IT DOES NOT DO SO ON SECLUDED ROADS WHERE DEER ARE MOST PREVALENT AND IN TURN THE MOST DIFFICULT TO SEE. TURNING THE "BRIGHTS" ON MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO THE ACTUAL AREAS THAT REPRESENT THE POSSIBLE DANGER ONE MIGHT ENCOUNTER SUCH AS PEDESTRIANS, DEBRIS ON THE ROAD, DEER AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, POORLY LIT VEHICLES, ETC. IT DOES HOWEVER ILLUMINATE THE TREES WHICH MIGHT BE HELPFUL TO SOME BUT NOT TOO ME. I UNDERSTAND GM ATTEMPTING TO SAVE WHERE POSSIBLE, BUT GIVE US THAT NEED BETTER PERFORMING HEADLIGHTS HAVE THE FACTORY OPTION TO UPGRADE THEM TO HID'S, I WOULD HAVE PAID FOR IT, AS WE DID WITH THE NISSAN, AND AS MY BROTHER DID WITH HIS FORD F150, BOTH OF WHICH HAVE OUTSTANDING HEADLIGHT OUTPUT THANKS TO THE HID'S. *TR

UNSAFE AND WEAK LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. *TR

PURCHASED MY 2014 GMC SIERRA NOVEMBER OF 2013. CURRENTLY I'M ON MY 9TH RECALL NOTICE. MORE IMPORTANTLY THE LIGHTING ON MY FRONT HEADLIGHTS ARE THE MOST UNSAFE LIGHTING AT NIGHT I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. THE HIGH BEAMS ARE USE LESS. PAID $43,000 FOR MY TRUCK. YOU WOULD THINK THEIR LIGHTING WOULD BE TOP NOTCH. THE BAD THING ABOUT THIS IS NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT SO GMC ISN'T EXPRESSING ANY CONCERNS ABOUT THIS MAJOR FLAW. THIS SHOULD BE A MAJOR RECALL WERE PROPER LIGHTING IS PUT IN. NOTHING WILL BE DONE TILL SOMEONE GETS INTO A ACCIDENT OR DIES FROM INJURIES FROM LACK OF LIGHTING. *TR

WORST HEADLIGHT FOR A NEW VEHICLE. I HAVE OWNED VARIOUS GM TRUCKS FROM 1967 TO 2014. NEVER HAVE I OWNED A TRUCK WITH SUCH WORTHLESS HEADLIGHTS LIKE THE PROJECTOR BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 GMC SIERRA 1500 WITH THE ALL TERRAIN PACKAGE. THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHT ARE VERY DIM AND DO NOT LIGHT THE ROAD MORE THAN 30 FEET AHEAD. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (55-70) THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS ARE ONLY LIGHTING A HALF SECOND AHEAD OF YOU. ADDITIONALLY THERE IS NO LIGHTING TO ILLUMINATE THE SHOLDER AT ALL.. YOU MUST DRIVE FULL TIME WITH THE FOG LAMPS ON TO HAVE A SMALL INCREASE IN LIGHTING. WHEN USING THE HIGH BEAMS THERE IS VERY LITTLE EFFECT ON VISIBILITY. EXTREMELY DISAPOINTED IN THE 2014 GMC SIERRA. AND WILL UNLIKELY PURCHASE ANOTHER GM PRODUCT IN THE FUTURE. AT A MSRP OF OVER 50 GRAND I WOULD EXPECT A TRUCK TO HAVE ADEQUATE HEADLIGHT TO LIGHT THE ROAD. WITHOUT THE AFTERMARKET COST TO INSTALL BETTER LIGHTING THE 2014 GMC SIERRA IS VERY UNSAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS DID NOT PROJECT GOING DOWN A HILL AND TURNING ON A CURVE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DESIGNED THAT WAY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

HEADLIGHTS ARE INADEQUATE ON LOW BEAM WITHOUT THE USE OF THE LOWER DRIVING/FOG LAMPS. LOWER LAMPS NEEDED TO LIGHT SIDES OF ROAD. WHEN SWITCHING TO HIGH BEAMS, LAMPS ARE TOTALLY USELESS. BEAM IS FOCUSED WAY TOO HIGH AND NARROWS. WITHOUT LOWER FOG LAMPS ON WITH HIGH BEAMS, THERE IS NO ILLUMINATION OF THE ROAD SIDES OR LOWER PAVEMENT FROM 5-30/50 FEET OUT IN FRONT OF VEHICLE. THIS IS SERIOUS ISSUE WHEN DRIVING ON RURAL HIGHWAYS OR COUNTY ROADS AT NIGHT OR ON OPEN INTERSTATES. UNABLE TO SEE ANY WILDLIFE OR PEDESTRIANS ON SIDE OR IN FRONT OF VEHICLE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. *TR

LIVE IN WEST VIRGINIA. WAS TRAVELING HOME FROM 2ND SHIFT ALONG GOOD COUNTRY ROAD WHEN I HAD TO SWERVE TO MISS A DEER. REASON WAS BE THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY WEEK OLD GMC SIERRA ARE AWFUL. THEY DO NOT LIGHT UP THE ROAD CORRECTLY (SIDE TO SIDE) OR DISTANCE WISE. THE LOW BEAMS SHINE OUT ABOUT 30 FEET AND WHEN I USE THE HIGH BEAMS THE LIGHT IS NOT AIMED PROPERLY. IT SHINES EVERYWHERE BUT ON THE ROAD. DEALER SAID THEY'VE HAD LOT OF COMPLAINTS BUT NO INFO FROM GM ON A FIX. MY LAST GM TRUCK HAD GREAT LIGHTS. SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A RAM! THIS IS DANGEROUS AND NEEDS NOT TO BE COVERED UP LIKE THE IGNITION SWITCH THING. *TR

WORST HEADLIGHT ON A NEW VEHICLE. I OWN 4 AUTOS AND AM SCARED TO DRIVE AT HIGHWAY SPEED ON LOCAL PENNSYLVANIA ROADS. THE HIGH BEAM HAS NO INCREASE IN VISUAL EFFECT. VERY DISAPPOINTED I MAY HAVE TO ADD EXTRA LIGHT OR MODIFY FACTORY TESTED LIGHTING TO MAKE THIS ADEQUATE FOR SAFE DRIVING. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE. VERY DIM. BRIGHTS ARE NO BETTER. INSTALLED AFTERMARKET LIGHTING (JUST UNDER $400) JUST TO BE SAFE AT NIGHT. . MADE COMPLAINT WITH GM. THEY DID NOT ADMIT TO KNOWLEDGE OF THE PROBLEM AND OFFERED NOTHING TO MAKE SITUATION RIGHT. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED AND WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER GMC WITH PROJECTION HEADLIGHTS. *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS THE WORSE HEADLIGHTS OF ANY VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED (I HAVE OWNED 341). THE HEADLIGHTS CUT OFF ABRUPTLY AT 36 FEET IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. YOU CAN OUTDRIVE THE HEADLIGHTS AT 5 MPH. AFTER 4 VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY HAVE AIMED THE HEADLIGHTS UP TO CAST THE LIGHT OUT FURTHER, BUT THE HIGH BEAMS ARE NOW 30 FEET UP IN THE TREES. THE LIGHT IS VERY, VERY DIM OVERALL. I OWN A 2014 MOSSIMO UTV FOUR WHEELER AND THE LIGHTS ARE BRIGHTER AND HAVE MORE DISTANCE THAN MY $50,000 TRUCK, I ALSO OWN A KIA SOUL, A 2013 FORD FUSION, AND A 2014 CHRYSLER TOWN AND COUNTRY. ALL OF THOSE HEADLIGHTS ARE MUCH BRIGHTER AND GIVE GREAT LIGHT DISPERSION ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ROAD AND ARE BRIGHT. MY HEADLIGHTS ARE LIKE A 3 WAY BULB 70/100/125 WATT.MY OTHER CARS ARE LIKE THE 125 AND THE GMC IS LESS THAN THE 70 WATT SETTING...GOOD COMPARISON. GMC IS USING 1 HIR SINGLE FILAMENT BULB WITH A MECHANICAL FLAPPER FOR LOW BEAM. VERY SORRY SET UP. I LIVE IN TENNESSEE WHERE THE ROADS ARE CROOKED AND HAVE NO SHOULDERS. IF YOU DRIVE OFF THE ROAD, YOU ARE IN A DEEP DITCH OR DEAD. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE. 1901 HEADLIGHTS ON A 2014 TRUCK. I DO NOT ANY LONGER DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT. GM HAS DONE NOTHING. NO FIX, NO BULLETIN. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 2014 GMC HEADLIGHTS ON THE INTERNET. I GUESS GM WILL COVER THIS UP LIKE THE IGNITION THING. I HAD A 2002 CORVETTE THAT THE IGNITION WOULD LOCK UP THE STEERING WHEEL ON, WHILE DRIVING. GM SAID IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE. I HAD VIDEO. THEY BOUGHT IT BACK. COVERUP ARTISTS! *TR
