2015 Gmc Sierra 1500 Lights Problems

Headlights on this vehicle, since purchased, have not cast enough light in order to see in unlit backroads, or extrememly dim areas. I have to drive with my brights on constantly, in order to get enough light thrown onto the road, for the left and right sides, as well as the front. These were not working well since purchase. I took my child to a friends house in rural PA, and I literally could NOT SEE THE street signs, let alone far enough down the road. I nearly hit a stone wall.. My eyes keep asking to see more, but truck does not produce enough headlight. I even went to the eye doctor, after that situation, thinking it was my vision dimming, but was told I have 20/20. There needs to be a formal recall. I am not the only one complaining about these HORRIBLE projection headlights. To replace these headlights would cost over 1000K, out of pocket, which is not something I should have to fix. I am complaining now, because with the light getting darker earlier, am noticing how lousy driving at night really is.. and honestly, being BLINDED by oncoming LED's , without having proper headlights on my truck in order to see when blinded, really [XXX]. Please address these [XXX]. Make headlights great again! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Lack of illumination of headlights straight ahead. No light shines to the sides of the vehicle making it difficult to see left or right when negotiating a turn at night. I have put new bulbs in both sides the best money can buy at CarQuest with no improvement. The headlight lenses are not dirty or fogged over. It appears to be a design problem, and I have seen other people with this model truck complain about the same thing on some blogs. I contacted GM directly looking for information I can get on a possible upgrade, and they have offered not solution. I have had this issue with this vehicle since buying it used 4.28.2018

Headlights are so dim because of the plastic cover that is made into the OEM headlight assembly. The plastic apparently had no UV protectant and the plastic has turned dingey yellow and clouded where it's affected the light output from the vehicle

Lights are too dim to drive at night. Bulbs have been replaced with 6 different styles but the lights are too dim. Bright lights shine too high to be useful. Spoke with numerous people who have had the same problem.

The stock headlights both low and high beams provide poor lighting at night. The headlights provide a poor beam pattern making it incredibly difficult to see more than 100 ft in front of you while driving down dark roads. And even more difficult in light storm conditions both rain and snow. The high beams aim too high when used and don't show enough of the road in front of you but rather the tops of tree's or other objects instead of the road. The low beams don't provide much light on the sides of the road as well and at times feel more like they're just fog lights with the amount of light that is put out. These incidents happen anywhere from low speeds up to highway speeds. I have noticed this issue since purchasing it used and have seen multiple similar complaints online.

This vehicle has poor headlight performance. I changed the bulbs to no avail. There is no way this 2015 GMC passes vehicle state inspections if they really look. There is very little power to the lights, even on the high-beams. After some quick research - GM has a service bulletin PIT5374 that addresses this very issue. But the dealerships are using this safety defect as a way to generate service volume. Requiring a $170.00 diagnosis to identify a problem they already know exists.

The headlights are very poor. Can hardly see at night. They're no better when on high beams.

THE HEADLAMPS ON MY VEHICLE HAVE BEEN VERY POOR, BOTH IN LOW AND HIGH BEAM POSITIONS EVER SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THINKING THAT THEIR MUST BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE EXISTING HEADLAMPS, I PURCHASED THE REPLACEMENT BULBS AND THERE WERE NO IMPROVEMENTS. WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT I HAVE TO STAY ON LOW BEAM WITH THE FOG LIGHTS ON JUST TO HELP TO SEE. I CAN'T USE MY HIGH BEAMS AT ALL BECAUSE THE LIGHTING IS SO POOR. GMC IS AWARE OF THEIR HEADLAMP ISSUES ON THE 2014 AND 15 MODELS BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT TO MY KNOWLEDGE. WITHOUT SPENDING $500-$1000 TO CHANGE THEM OVER TO LED, IS THERE ANYTHING THAT I CAN DO TO IMPROVE THIS SITUATION?

THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT ALLOWED RAIN TO ENTER THE CAB OF TRUCK.(GASKET FAILED) HEADLINER, CARPET ON FLOOR, INSULATION ALL RUINED. DIAGNOSED BY A "WATER DOCTOR" AT THE DEALER WHERE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED. THE FLOOR ON THE PASSENGER FRONT WAS SOAKED, HEADLINER IS STAINED. I REMOVED ALL SEATS, CARPET, INSULATION AND THE SMELL IS STILL THERE. CALLED GMC TO TRY TO GET ASSISTANCE ON REPAIRS. TRUCK IS OUT OF FACTORY WARRANTY. GMC OFFERED $585 LEAVING A BALANCE OF $1300 TO BE PAID BY ME TO REPLACE THE HEADLINER. HOW IS IT THAT THE 3RD BRAKE LIGHT ALLOWS RAIN TO ENTER THE CAB OF THE VEHICLE. ITEMIZED ESTIMATE FROM DEALER TO REPLACE AND PUT TRUCK BACK TOGETHER IS $4500-$5000. MONEY THAT I DON'T HAVE. THIS IS A POOR DESIGN. DID NOT KNOW/REALIZE THAT A GASKET WOULD FAIL AND ALLOW WATER TO LEAK INSIDE. THE TRUCK IS PARKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY OR ON THE STREET. I DO NOT HAVE A GARAGE. I STARTED TAKING THE SEATS AND CARPET OUT THE LAST WEEK OF DECEMBER 2020. OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS INSULATION WAS REMOVED. THE MOLDY/MUSTY SMELL REMAINS. GMC WAS CONTACTED APPROXIMATELY THE LAST OF JANUARY OR THE FIRST WEEK OF FEBRUARY 2021. I AM STILL IN TALKS WITH THEM. AARON, CASE MANAGER AT GMC WITH WHOM I HAVE BEEN DEALING. HE IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT SOMEWAY TO GIVE ME ASSISTANCE IN GETTING MY TRUCK BACK TOGETHER. I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN LEAKING BEFORE I STARTED SMELLING THE MUSTY ODOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE VERY DIM MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO VIEW THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO VARNEY BUICK GMC MAZDA (260 HOGAN RD, BANGOR, ME 04401) WHERE THE BULBS WERE REPLACED UNDER A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN HOWEVER, THE BULB REPLACEMENT FAILED TO FIX THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE REPLACED THE BULBS TWICE WITH LED BULBS HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 28,202. CONSUMER STATED VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DEFECTIVE DRIVING LIGHT. DEALER STATED NOTHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT IT. CONSUMER ALSO STATED HE HAD HIT 2 DEERS AT NIGHT.*JB

WHILE THE HEAD LIGHTS AND FOG LIGHTS ARE ON, THE RIGHT HEAD AND FOG LIGHTS ARE DIM BUT THE LEFT HEAD AND FOG LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT. ALSO THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL SHOWS ERROR MESSAGE ON THE CLUSTER THAT THE BULB NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND YOU CAN HEAR IT BLINKING FAST, BUT WHEN I EXIT THE VEHICLE TO INSPECT THE SIGNAL I NOTICE THAT IT IS NOT BLOWN AND IT WORKS FINE BUT I STILL GET THE ERROR MESSAGE AND THE FAST BLINKING. BOTH STATED PROBLEMS OCCUR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT OR IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, THE HEADLAMPS LUMINESCENCE WAS NOT ADEQUATE FOR SAFE DRIVING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLAMPS WERE EXTREMELY DIM. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE PULLED OFF OF THE ROADWAY SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THE HEADLAMP FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LONE STAR CHEVROLET (18900 NORTHWEST FREEWAY, HOUSTON, TX 770650, AND WAS DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS INTENDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS THEN INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUTSIDE OF THE 36,000 MILE WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,000.

VERY POOR HEADLIGHTS. I JUST CAN'T SEE. IT IS LIKE A FOG. NLOCKED OUT SIDE VIEWS. DIMS ARE NOT GOOD AND BRIGHTS DON'T EVEN GET FLASHED BY ONCOMING VEHICLES. THEY SHINE IN THE TREES. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN THREE TIMES TO A DEALER OF GMC'S AND THEY DON'T HAVE A SOLUTION. THEY SAID THEY REALIZE THE PROBLEM BUT HANDS ARE TIED BECAUSE I THINK IF THEY START TO FIX IT A CAN OF WORMS WILL BE OPENED UP AND COST THE COMPANY. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS MUST YOU HAVE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT, BOTH THE LOW BEAM AND HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS ILLUMINATED EXTREMELY LOW, WHICH CREATED A VISIBILITY HAZARD FOR THE DRIVER. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING IN FORWARD AND REVERSE, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO DEPRESS AND THE STOPPING DISTANCE WAS EXTENDED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE FAILURES WERE MORE PRESENT WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS IN REVERSE AND AFTER PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL MULTIPLE TIMES. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS NOT DETERMINED. CHARLIE'S CHEVROLET (1412 US ROUTE 202, WINTHROP, ME 04364) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 14,000.

BOTH BACK BRAKE LIGHT WORK INCONSISTANTLY. WHILE MOVING AND AT A COMPLETE STOP. LOCAL DEALERSHIP CHARGES AT MIN 1200 PER LIGHT TO FIX. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE DENALI'S.

BOTH BREAKLIGHTS NO LONGER WORK DUE TO FAULTY ELECTRICAL PANEL.

2015 GMC SIERRA SLE / 60K MILES / PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS...NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM NUMEROUS OTHERS, I'M IN THE SAME BOAT. ILLUMINATION IN GENERAL, DRIVING IN RURAL AREAS, DRIVING IN INCLEMENT WEATHER, MAKING TURNS (SIDE STREETS), ETC., IS HORRIBLE, UNSAFE, NERVE-RACKING AND TROUBLESOME. SURE, THE HEADLIGHTS LOOK SNAZZY, BUT PERFORM ABOUT AS WELL AS MY LAWN TRACTOR'S HEADLIGHTS. I SEE THERE'S A TSB REGARDING THE SITUATION AND, MUCH TO MY DISMAY, I HAVE TO PAY FOR SAID PARTS/LABOR TO CORRECT AN OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW/SNAFU. AM I CRAZY FOR THINKING THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE? EVEN MORE SHOCKING, IT APPEARS THE BCM REPROGRAMMING (MARGINAL RESULTS) AND LAMP REPLACEMENT IS PROBLEMATIC (INCREASED VOLTAGE TO A BULB/LAMP SHORTENS ITS LIFE CONSIDERABLY). A VEHICLE THAT COSTS 30-40-50K SHOULD NOT HAVE GARBAGE TECHNOLOGY. ON THE PLUS SIDE, AT 48 YEARS YOUNG, MY VISION REMAINS 20/20 AND I DO NOT REQUIRE VISION CORRECTION. THE WIFE, MY 2 KIDS (OF DRIVING AGE) AND MY NEIGHBOR CONCUR - THESE HEADLIGHTS SUCK. I LOVE EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT THE VEHICLE, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE INSTEAD OF SPENDING $200 FOR THE TSB, I'LL TRY MY LUCK WITH AFTERMARKET REPLACEMENTS FOR $300. VIA MULTIPLE ONLINE VEHICLE FORUMS, MOST WHO'VE GONE THE ROUTE OF TSB ARE MARGINALLY IMPRESSED AND EVERYONE ELECTING TO GO WITH AFTERMARKET IS COMPLETELY SATISFIED...THAT ALONE SHINES A SPOTLIGHT ON THE LACK OF VISIBILITY BOTH THE NHTSA AND GM ARE PROVIDING THE CONSUMER. MAYBE INSTEAD OF PAYING SUITS MILLIONS PER YEAR TO PRODUCE SUBPAR VEHICLES, GM SHOULD DO THE RIGHT THING AND FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS MOST -- THE PAYING CUSTOMER. YEAH, WE HAVE A BETTER SHOT WITH THE NHTSA HOLDING GM ACCOUNTABLE AND FORCE THEM INTO A RECALL (CORRECTING THE PROBLEM PROPERLY, NOT A WILLY NILLY REPROGRAM AND BULB REPLACEMENT).

WE BOUGHT OUR 2015 DENALI 1 YEAR AGO AND HAVE APPROX 50,000 MILES AND THE PASSENGERS SIDE TAIL LIGHT IS OUT. AFTER RESEARCHING TAILLIGHT PROBLEMS FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE. THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A RECALL BUT WHEN LOOKED INTO, I SEE IT IS NOT. ITS A SHAME TO SPEND SO MUCH MONEY ON A VEHICLE TO HAVE THE TAIL LIGHT OUT AT 3 YEARS (AFTER FACTORY WARRANTY IS ALREADY OUT) AND YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE TAIL LIGHT INSTEAD OF ONE PIECE.

HEADLIGHTS ARE POOR. LOW AND HIGH BEAMS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD EFFECTIVELY IN RURAL AREAS

PROJECTOR STYLE HEADLIGHTS THAT CAME FACTORY ARE TOO DIM MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND UNSAFE. LIGHTS ARE NOW POWERFUL ENOUGH TO LIGHT UP THE ROAD.

THE STOCK FACTORY HEAD LAMPS/BULBS ARE VERY DIM AND DO NOT LIGHT UP THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OR VERY FAR DOWN THE ROAD AND THE LIGHTS HAVE A VERY SHARP CUT OFF LINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VISIBILITY WAS EXTREMELY POOR FOR THE OEM HEAD LAMP ASSEMBLIES AND THE DAY TIME RUNNING LIGHTS. THE DEALER (VARNEY BUICK GMC MAZDA, 260 HOGAN RD, BANGOR, ME 04401, 207-990-1220) WAS NOTIFIED SEVERAL TIMES THAT WHEN THE HIGH BEAMS WERE UTILIZED, THE VISIBILITY WAS EXTREMELY POOR. THE FAILURE WAS MORE PREVALENT DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT OFFER ANOTHER OEM LIGHT FIXTURE WITH A HIGHER VOLUME OF LIGHTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000.

RIGHT BRAKE LIGHT IS OUT

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2015 GMC SERRIA 1500 SLT ARE UNSAFE. THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT LIGHT TO THE SIDES ADEQUITELY AND THIS IS VERY APPARENT WHEN MAKING A TURN AT NIGHT. I HAVE ALSO READ ABOUT THIS SAME HEADLIGHT SAFETY CONCERN ON SEVERAL WEBSITES POSTED BY OTHER OWNERS.

HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM, HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS RAINING. MUST USE FOG LAMPS AT ALL TIMES TO BE ABLE TO IMPROVE VISION. CONTACTED GM AND DEALER ABOUT ISSUE, HAVE CLAIM NUMBER. THEY SAY TRUCK IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY TO DO ANYTHING.

NIGHT TIME VISION IS COMPROMISED DUE TO POOR HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATION, MOST NOTABLE IN AREAS OF LOW AMBIENT LIGHTING OR RAIN. THIS HAS BEEN PRESENT SINCE PURCHASED NEW. TRUCK HEADLIGHT BULBS WERE UPDATED UNDER GENERAL MOTORS SERVICE BULLETIN PIT5374B AT LOCAL GMC DEALER WHERE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. CHARGE FOR THIS UPDATE WAS $149.21. WHILE I DO NOT HOLD THE DEALER RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS CHARGE, I DO FEEL THE SUBSTANDARD LIGHTS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A MANDATORY SAFETY ISSUE AND DEALT WITH AS SUCH

HEADLIGHT QUALITY HEADLIGHT QUALITY IS VERY POOR,SIDE LIGHTING AND DISTANCE LIGHTING ARE TERRIBLE. GM ISSUED A TSB BUT NO RECALL FOR PEOPLE WHO COMPLAINED ABOUT THE HEADLIGHTS.I PURCHASED AT 37K SO AM BEYOND THE 3YR/36K. I AM LOOKING INTO AFTER MARKET FIXES FOR THE PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED IN THE 2016 MODELS.

UNSAFE HEAD LIGHTS AND THE SUPPOSED UPDATED HEADLIGHT ARE ONLY GOOD FOR 12 MONTHS OR 12,000 MILES.. THE REPLACEMENTS HAVE BOTH BURNED OUT ALREADY AT $50 EACH.

HEADLIGHTS ARE INADEQUATE ON HIGH OR LOW BEAMS. IT SEEMS THAT THE LIGHT IS FOCUSED INTO TWO NARROW BEAMS IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE UP FOR THE LOW LUMEN LEVEL OF THE LED BULBS. THESE NARROW BEAMS DON'T LIGHT UP ENOUGH OF WHAT IS IN FRONT OF YOU FOR NIGHT DRIVING. I HAVE TO USE MY FOG LAMPS TO TURN ONTO STREETS WITHOUT STREET LIGHTS ON THE CORNER. THE RECIRCULATING SWITCH FOR THE VENTILATION SYSTEM WILL NOT EVEN REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF OUTSIDE AIR COMING INTO THE CABIN, MUCH LESS OCCLUDE IT. NOT GOOD IN 5 O:CLOCK TRAFFIC OR WHEN YOUR BEHIND A DIESEL BURNER. THE DEALERSHIP ACTS LIKE THEY ARE CLUELESS AND SAY EVERYTHING IS WORKING AS IT SHOULD. AFTER READING THIS FORM WITH SO MANY HEADLIGHT COMPLAINTS, I ASKED IF THEY HAD EVER GOTTEN ANY COMPLAINTS LIKE MINE AND THEY DENIED THAT THEY EVER HAVE; AND THEY DID IT WITH A STRAIGHT FACE!

POOR QUALITY HEADLIGHTS, VERY DIFFICULT TO NOT "OVER DRIVE" THE PROJECTED RANGE OF HEADLIGHTS. IN REALITY, YOU SHOULD PROBABLY NEVER DRIVE OVER 35 MPH AFTER DARK. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ANYTHING IN THE RAIN.

HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE AT NIGHT. VERY UNSAFE ON DARK ROADS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED AT NIGHT, THE CONTACT COULD NOT SEE ABOVE 50 TO 55 FEET AHEAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (GRAFF CHEVROLET, OKEMOS, MI, 517-349-8300) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN UTILIZED THE TSB INSTRUCTIONS AND ADJUSTED THE HEADLIGHTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LIGHTS BECAME BRIGHTER, BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT COMPLETELY REPAIRED. THE CONTACT DID NOT REMEMBER WHETHER THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 12,000.

THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD PROPERLY. YOU CANNOT SEE LEFT OR RIGHT, ONLY STRAIGHT AHEAD. ALSO THE BRIGHTNESS IS VERY LOW. DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

HEAD LIGHTS ARE SO BAD IT'S DANGEROUS DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH THE LOW BEAMS. THE INTERNAL HEAD LIGHT SHUTTER CREATES A DISTINCT LINE WITH TOTAL DARKNESS ABOVE. WHILE TAKING A TURN YOU HAVE NO LIGHT TO THE SIDE AT ALL! YOU EASILY OUT DRIVE THE HEAD LIGHTS WITH ONLY THE LOW BEAM. BEEN IN THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW. NO GOOD AFTER MARKET FIX!

WHEN DRIVING IN RURAL AREAS AT NIGHT HEADLIGHTS ONLY ILLUMINATE OUT ABOUT 100 FEET IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE CREATING A BLACK LINE WITH ALMOST NO VISIBILITY ABOVE THE LINE AND EXTREMELY LIMITED SIDE VISIBILITY WHICH CREATES A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM WHEN TURNING IN EITHER DIRECTION AT AN INTERSECTION AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SPOT ANIMALS, PEDESTRIANS OR BICYCLISTS.

GMC UPGRADED THE HEADLAMPS AS A "FIX" FOR THE EXTREMELY POOR SIDE AND FORWARD ILLUMINATION BY THE VEHICLE. THE "FIX" IS STILL SUCH A POOR EXCUSE FOR HEADLAMP ILLUMINATION THAT WE KEEP FROM DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT AS A "SAFETY" REASON. THE POOR PERFORMANCE CONTINUES AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS EXHAUSTED WHAT GMC/GM IS WILLING TO DO AND IS NOT THE DEALERSHIPS PROBLEM BUT GM'S. I WOULD SEND A PHOTO OF THE POOR HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE BUT YOU CAN'T SEE IT AS IT WAS ON A RAINY NIGHT AND THE HEADLAMPS THEN ARE EVEN WORSE. WHAT A POOR EXCUSE FOR A FIX. GMC/GM FIXED THE ISSUES IN THE 2016 AND 2017 BUT DUE TO THE COST OF REWORKING THE TRUCKS THEY SOLD IN 2014 AND 2015 THEY HIDE BEHIND THE SORRY FIX THEY MAKE THE DEALERS TRY TO MAKE THE CUSTOMERS GO AWAY.

REAR TAILLIGHTS HAVE MOISTURE IN THEM. THE MOISTURE IS CONSTANT IN ONE AND INTERMITTENT IN THE OTHER. BOTH HAVE BEEN REPLACED ONCE BY DEALER 3 MONTHS AGO. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS

I OWN A 2015 GMC SIERRA. I BELIEVE THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM. A FEW DAYS AFTER PURCHASING MY TRUCK NEW OFF THE LOT I MISSED TURNING ON MY STREET (THAT I HAVE LIVED ON FOR 3 YEARS) BECAUSE I WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE THE SIGN OR THE ROAD PROPERLY. I ENDED UP IN MY NEIGHBOR'S DITCH. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO DAMAGE, BUT I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT ON FAMILIAR ROADS DUE TO THE INSUFFICIENT AMOUNT LIGHT THE HEADLIGHTS PRODUCE. THIS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AFTER DARK ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD WITH 35 MPH SPEED LIMITS. THERE WAS NOT ANY ADDITIONAL STREET LIGHTING AROUND TO PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL LIGHTING.

HEAD LIGHTS ARE DIM BOTH HIGH AND LOW BEAM .IN TRAFFIC AT NIGHT IN THE RAIN ON THE HIGHWAY CAN NOT SEE LANES .SIDE VISION THERE IS NONE .ON HILLY BACK ROADS VISION IS LIMITED .LOW BEAM YOU GO IN A DIP LIGHTS ARE IN THE GROUND GOING UP OTHER SIDE LIGHTS ARE IN THE TREES. HIGH BEAMS ARE IN THE TREE TOPS .ONLY 1 BULB ADJUST IS LIMITED.

CAN'T DRIVE AT NIGHT VERY POOR VISIBILITY IS SO DANGER DRIVING OVER FREEWAY AT NIGHT THE ROD DISAPPEAR BECAUSE THE LOW BEAN CAN'T ILLUMINE THE ROD NOW ALL THE TIME I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH HIG BEAN BUT STILL NOT ENOUGH LIGHT AND ILLUMINATION TO BE FOCUS ON THE ROD IS VEY DANGER DRIVING THIS TRUCK WITH THIS TRUCK FACTORY PROBLEM

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND DANGEROUS IN THIS VEHICLE. VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT AND DANGEROUS WHEN RAINING. IT'S BEEN LIKE THIS FROM WHEN I BOUGHT IT. LIGHTING SHOULD BE BETTER ON A $50K TRUCK.

HEADLIGHTS ARE TOTALLY INADEQUATE FOR NIGHT DRIVING. ADD A BIT OF RAIN AND IT IS REALLY SCARY. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM, (HIGH AND LOW BEAM), THAT THEY SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE USELESS,CAN'T SEE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND ALWAYS FEEL LIKE I'M OVERDRIVING THE LIGHTS EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT EVEN AT THE SPEED LIMIT! *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS IN THIS VEHICLE ARE UNSAFE. THE ARE DIM AND ONLY PROJECT OUT A SHORT DISTANCE AND VERY LITTLE TO THE PERIPHERY. THERE IS ALSO A DARK LINE IN THE FIELD OF VIEW WHERE ABOVE IT IS DARK AND BELOW IS DULL LIGHT. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL GM DEALERSHIP AND THE SOLUTION WAS TO UPGRADE THE LIGHT BULBS WHICH THEY DID. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I ESCALATED IT TO GM CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2015 SIERRA ARE HORRIBLE AND DO NOT ILLUMINATE WELL ENOUGH TO PROVIDE FOR SAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT. ALSO, THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO SIDE ILLUMINATION WHICH MAKES TURNING CORNERS DANGEROUS. *TR

ON THE NIGHT OF 11/04/2016 WE ALMOST HIT A PERSON THAT WAS NOT VISIBLE TO US BECAUSE OF INADEQUATE FACTORY HEADLIGHTS ON ALL GMC 1500 TRUCKS. WE HAVE HAD OUR TRUCK IN FOR WARRANTY COMPLAINT ON THESE LIGHT, AND AFTER 3 DEALERS IN 3 DIFFERENT STATE THE FIX THEY USE DOES NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. AND NOW GM CUSTOMER RELATIONS E- MAIL ME AND STATE THEY HAVE DONE ALL THEY CAN DO AND CLOSES OUR CLAIM. NHTSA NEEDS TO LOOK IN TO THIS ASAP BEFORE SOME ONE IS KILLED, I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK AFTER DARK

HEADLIGHTS: YOU CAN NOT DRIVE THIS TRUCK AFTER DARK BECAUSE THE HEADLIGHTS ARE UNSAFE. WHEN ON LOW BEAM THERE IS A BLACK SPOT FROM ABOUT 3 FEET UP AND THERE IS NO SIDE LIGHT. THIS MAKES IT IMPOSABLE TO SEE CURBS, STREET SIGNS, STOP SIGNS, HUMANS AND ANIMALS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD STREET OR HIGHWAY

HARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE ROADWAY VERY WELL. AND RAINY NIGHT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE WITH HEADLIGHT AND DRIVING LIGHTS ON. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ARE A MFG DEFECT AND THIS TRUCK IS EXTREMELY DANGERS TO DRIVE AFTER DARK

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE VEHICLE FAIL TO PROVIDE AN ADEQUATE LATERAL VIEW OF THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT MAKING IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ANYTHING THAT MIGHT BE MOVING IN TO THE DRIVER'S PATH FROM THE LEFT OR NIGHT SIDES. LATERAL VIEW OF THE HIGHWAY IS NOT IMPROVED WHEN CHANGING FROM LOW BEAM TO HIGH BEAM OR VICE VERSA. THE ONLY WAY TO CAST ANY LATERAL LIGHT TO THE SIDES OF THE HIGHWAY IS TO UTILIZE THE FOG LAMPS WHICH CAN ONLY BE ACTIVATED WHILE USING THE LOW BEAM. THE LACK OF ADEQUATE LATERAL LIGHTING MAKES NIGHT DRIVING EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOOK FOR ANIMALS OR HUMANS THAT MIGHT BE STEPPING IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE THE TIME THE VEHICLE WAS LEASED.

I HAVE A 2015 GMC SIERRA PICKUP TRUCK, PURCHASED NEW IN FEBRUARY 2015. AS SOON AS I DROVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT, I NOTICED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE VERY DIM ON BOTH LOW BEAM AND HIGH BEAM. AFTER RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET, I FOUND A GM TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (#PIT5374) , WHICH INSTRUCTS THE TECH TO REPLACE BOTH HEADLIGHT BULBS, AND TO INCREASE VOLTAGE TO THE HEADLIGHTS VIA THE BODY CONTROL MODULE. I HAD THE DEALER PERFORM THIS TSB IN JUNE OF 2015, BUT SINCE THE UPGRADE, THE PERFORMANCE OF THE HEADLIGHTS IS ONLY SLIGHTLY BETTER. THE TRUCK IS UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT, AND ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT IN THE RAIN. IN ADDITION, ONE OF THE NEW HEADLIGHT BULBS BLEW LAST WEEK, BUT THE GMC DEALER REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY ONCE HE LOCATED A BULB AT ANOTHER DEALERSHIP IN TOWN.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN JUNE OF 2015. THE HEADLIGHTS IN THIS VEHICLE ARE ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE AND EXTREMELY UNSAFE. NIGHT TIME DRIVING IS VERY DIFFICULT AND UNNERVING BECAUSE THE HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE IS SO POOR. IF DRIVING AT NIGHT AND IT STARTS RAINING, FORGET IT. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER A HALF DOZEN TIMES AND THEY PERFORMED 1TSB WHICH MADE ALMOST NO NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE.

HEADLIGHTS ON NEW 2015 GMC SIERRA DENALI 1500 TRUCK INADEQUATE - POOR LIGHTING PATTERN IN DARK DRIVING CONDITIONS - UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS. DEALERSHIP DENIED ISSUE, THEN STATED MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS REDIRECTING LIGHTS DOWN TOWARD ROAD. THIS ADJUSTMENT DIDN'T RESOLVE THE DIM LIGHTING ISSUE. I SUGGESTED PAYING OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE HEADLIGHTS - DEALERSHIP LAUGHED AND SAID THAT WOULD VOID THE WARRANTY. THESE DIM HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2015 GMC SIERRA SLT ARE BY FAR THE WORST HEADLIGHTS I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED IN THE MANY VEHICLES THAT I HAVE DRIVEN OVER THE LAST 30 YEARS. HOW THEY PASSED WHATEVER SAFETY STANDARDS THERE ARE SET IN PLACE IS BEYOND ME. THEY DO NOT PROVIDE A WIDE ENOUGH BEAM TO SEE AROUND TURNS OR WILDLIFE THAT MAY BE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY NOR DO THEY LIGHT UP ENOUGH OF THE ROAD IN DISTANCE TO SEE ANYTHING AT ALL BEYOND APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET WHILE TRAVELLING IN THE DARK. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO BE DRIVEN AT ANY SPEED DURING THE DARK. SADLY THE HIGH BEAMS ARE COMPLETELY USELESS AS WELL. THERE IS MORE LIGHT OUTPUT WITH THE LOW BEAMS ON IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE FOG LIGHTS (WHICH ISN'T SAYING MUCH) THAN THERE IS WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON. DRIVING IS THE RAIN IS EVEN WORSE. YOU CANNOT EVEN TELL THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON THAT'S HOW BAD THEY ARE. I HAVE COMPLAINED SEVERAL TIMES TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS AND GM DIRECTLY AND WAS TOLD "THAT'S JUST HOW THEY ARE AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THEM". I WAS GIVEN A 2016 SIERRA AS A LOANER VEHICLE WHILE I HAD MY VEHICLE IN FOR THIS AND SEVERAL OTHER ISSUES AND THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2016 VEHICLE THEY LOANED ME ARE A BIG IMPROVEMENT OVER THE 2014-15 LIGHTS. GM SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL ALL 2014-15 SIERRAS DUE TO THESE SEVERELY HAZARDOUS HEADLIGHTS AND FORCED TO INSTALL THE LIGHTS THAT COME ON THE 2016-17 SIERRAS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY WAS DIMINISHED BECAUSE THE LOW AND HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO FULLY ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS WHERE THE HEAD LAMPS WERE READJUSTED AND THE LIGHT BULBS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 0.

HEADLIGHTS DO NOT GIVE OFF ENOUGH LIGHT. THEY DON'T LIGHT THE ROAD FAR ENOUGH AHEAD AND ARE BAD OFF TO THE SIDES. IT'S HARD TO SEE OBJECTS IN THE ROAD AND HARD TO SEE STREETS YOU ARE TURNING ON. I HAVE ALMOST HIT DEER AND HAVE MISSED TURNS ON RURAL ROADS.

I PREVIOUSLY SENT IN A COMPLIANT ON THIS MATTER SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE POOR. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION, THEY DO NOT PROJECT OUT SIGNIFICANTLY AND THE SIDE ILLUMINATION IS NONEXISTENT. I FOUND OUT ON MY OWN THAT THEIR IS A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS MATTER. I TOOK MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER, WHO CHANGED THE LIGHT BULBS, THE IMPROVEMENT IS MARGINAL AT BEST. I AM EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS IF I NEED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THESE TRUCKS ARE DIM TO THE POINT OF BEING DANGEROUS. I'VE HAD THE DEALER UPDATE PERFORMED, AND HAVE EVEN TRIED AFTERMARKET BULBS, TO NO AVAIL. I AM GOING TO HAVE TO TRADE IT IN I'M AFRAID AS I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT AFTER DARK. GM REALLY DROPPED THE BALL ON THIS DESIGN, AND HAVE LEFT THOUSANDS OF OWNERS "IN THE DARK".

HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS! THEY PRODUCE A VERY NARROW STRAIGHT AHEAD LIGHT PATTERN. WE LIVE WHERE THERE ARE A LOT OF DEER AND YOU CAN'T SEE THEM ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ANY CURVE IN THE ROAD AND YOU'RE BLIND TILL YOU GET AROUND IT. ON A AIMING BOARD THEY PRODUCE A NARROW VERTICAL BAND OF LIGHT, IF YOU MARK THE HORIZON YOU FIND THAT HALF THE LIGHT IS SHING UP IN THE AIR. (THEY LIGHT UP THE TOPS OF TREES REAL NICE) BECAUSE OF THE 1 BULB DESIGN IF YOU ADJUST THEM DOWN TO GET THE HIGH BEAMS ON THE HORIZON THE LOW BEAMS WILL ONLY ILLUMINATE ABOUT 20 FEET OUT. IT IS JUST NOT SAFE DRIVING THIS TRUCK IN THE COUNTRY AT NIGHT. GM TRIED A BRIGHTER BULB BUT THE IMPROVEMENT WAS VERY MINOR. THE PROBLEM IS THE LENSE AND SHUTTER DESIGN.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2015 GMC SIERRA ARE DANGEROUS. THEY DO NOT PRODUCE A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF LIGHT TO COVER THE DRIVING AREA. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT THE SIDES OF THE ROAD ARE NOT VISIBLE NOR ARE WHAT LIES AHEAD IF ANY CURVATURE IS INVOLVED. IT IS TO THE POINT WHERE I TRY TO AVOID DRIVING IT AT NIGHT. THE ONES WHO DO NOT COMPLAIN EITHER LIVE IN TOWN WHERE STREET LIGHTS ARE PRESENT TO ASSIST WITH LIGHTING OR THEY ARE NOT DRIVING AT NIGHT.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS! LOW BEAMS WITH FOG LIGHTS ON ARE ADEQUATE FOR <45 MPH. ANYTHING FASTER AND YOU CAN'T SEE FAR ENOUGH AHEAD. FORGET USING THE HIGH BEAMS. ON DIMLY LIT HIGHWAYS, YOU CAN'T SEE IN FRONT ON THE VEHICLE. THE HIGH BEAMS DON'T ILLUMINATE THE ROAD SO IT'S SAFER TO USE THE LOW BEAMS AND HOPE THE 100FT VISIBILITY WILL ALLOW YOU TO SLOW SLIGHTLY BEFORE KILLING WHATEVER HUMAN/ANIMAL/OBSTACLE PRESENTS ITSELF. THIS TRUCK IS TOO DANGEROUS FOR MY FAMILY WITHOUT A RETROFIT.

BOUGHT A NEW 2015 SIERRA IN JAN 2016,AFTER I BOUGHT IT I DROVE FROM NEW BRUNSWICK TO MANITOBA AND IT WAS THE SCARIEST NIGHT DRIVE I HAVE EVER HAD (OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE )THE LOW BEAMS WERE DIM AND HAD NO USEFUL LIGHT PATTERN, AND HIGH BEAM JUST LIT UP THE TOPS OF TREES AND SIGNS, DRIVING THROUGH ONTARIO'S TWISTY HWY.I ALMOST WENT OFF THE ROAD MANY TIMES ,DUE TO THE POOR LIGHTS YOU WILL CORNER WITH OUT BEING ABLE TO SEE TILL YOUR STRAIGHT AND THE LIGHT HITS THE ROAD AGAIN. WHEN I ARRIVED IN MANITOBA I TOOK THE TRUCK TO A DEALERSHIP ,WHERE THEY REPLACED MY BULBS ,FLASHED THE BCM AND A LINED THE LIGHTS THE LIGHT IS A LITTLE BETTER BUT STILL NOT SAFE AS THEY STILL DON'T PROJECT MUCH LIGHT PATTERN. I CAN'T SEE STREET SIGNS ONLY THE BOTTOM OF THE POLES. AND HIGHS STILL POINT TO THE SKY WITH NO MORE ROAD LIGHT. RETURNED TO NEW BRUNSWICK AND BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AGAIN,AND THE SUGGEST THE SAME FIX AS WHAT THE MANITOBA DEALER JUST DID. STILL CANNOT DRIVE SAFE AT NIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS PROVIDED POOR ILLUMINATION AND OBSCURED HIS VISION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE HEADLIGHT HALOGEN BULBS WERE REPLACED, BUT THE VISIBILITY HAD NOT IMPROVED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,500.

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT I CAN'T SEE DOWN THE ROAD FAR ENOUGH TO SEE IF THERE WOULD BE ANYTHING IN THE ROAD. HAVE REPEATEDLY ASKED DEALER ABOUT THIS, AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT THERE WAS NO PLAN TO FIX IT. ON RAINY NIGHTS IT'S AS IF I HAVE NO HEADLIGHTS AT ALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, ONE OF THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER A MANUFACTURER WARRANTY PROGRAM, HOWEVER THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 19,000. UPDATED 08/02/16*LJ

HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATION EXTREMELY POOR. EVEN AFTER TSB BULB REPLACEMENT WAS COMPLETED ON VEHICLE, LOW AND HIGH BEAM ILLUMINATION IS UNSAFE AND UNACCEPTABLE.

CAN'T SEE AT NITE AND WORSE DURING RAIN. IT'S LIKE A 5 CELL FLASH LITE SET ON THE SMALL NARROW SETTING STEAD OF THE FLOOD SETTING. ALSO CAN'T SEE WILD LIFE THAT ARE STANDING NEAR THE WHITE LINE OF THE SHOULDERS AT NITE. TUNNEL VISION LIGHT. VERY DANGEROUS, PLEASE FIND A CURE. ALREADY HAD GMC'S UPGRADED BULBS.

I HAVE DRIVEN MANY VEHICLES IN MY LIFETIME AND THESE ARE THE WORST HEADLIGHTS I HAVE EXPERIENCED. A VERY SHORT CUTOFF AND WORST OF ALL, NO SIDE ILLUMINATION. I AM ALMOST AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AT NIGHT AND GOD HELP YOU IF IT IS NIGHT AND RAINING.

HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE UNACCEPTABLE YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING PAST 100 FEET AT 35 MPH ON A DARK STREET. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE SIERRA.

MY 2015 GMC SIERRA HAS DANGEROUS HEADLIGHTS, THEY DO NOT BEAM MORE THAN 30 FEET AHEAD AND THEY ARE VERY DIM.

ISSUE: HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROVIDE SUFFICIENT LIGHT FOR NIGHT DRIVING. UNLESS DRIVING IN A WELL LIT NEIGHBORHOOD, THESE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROVIDE SAFE LIGHTING FOR DRIVING. I CAN NOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT. THE WARRANTY ONLY PROVIDED DIFFERENT LIGHT BULBS WHICH ARE NO BETTER. THESE HEADLIGHTS NEED RECALLED IMMEDIATELY!

THE HEADLIGHTS EQUIPPED FROM THE FACTORY ON THESE VERY EXPENSIVE TRUCKS ARE DANGEROUS. WHEN DRIVING IN CONDITIONS OF LOW LIGHT, THERE IS SUCH LITTLE ILLUMINATION FROM THE HEADLIGHTS THAT IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE TO AVOID A COLLISION DUE TO MINIMAL REACTION TIME. BOTH THE HIGH AND LOW BEAM DO NOT PROVIDE SUFFICIENT LIGHTING FOR DIVING SAFELY IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS. THESE ARE THE MOST POORLY PERFORMING LIGHTS I CAN REMEMBER EVER HAVING FROM ANY MANUFACTURER.

THE ILLUMINATION PERFORMANCE OF THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2015 GMC SIERRA IS UNSATISFACTORY FOR DRIVING ON RURAL ROADS. THE PERFORMANCE IS ALSO SUBPAR IN FOGGY AND WET CONDITIONS. I FEEL THAT I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE SAFELY AT THE POSTED HIGHWAY SPEEDS USING THE CURRENT HEADLIGHTS PROVIDED BY THE AUTOMAKER. I FEEL THAT IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD POSSIBLY CONTRIBUTE TO HAZARDOUS DRIVING SITUATIONS AT NIGHT. I ALSO FEEL THAT IT COULD CAUSE A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT DUE TO THE POOR VISIBILITY AT POSTED HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE,OUTPUT AND PATTERN ARE POOR,VERY LITTLE LATERAL ILLUMINATION.UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT IN RURAL AREA.DRIVING IN RAIN,VERY DANGEROUS.GET EYE STRAIN AND HEADACHE.

THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS ARE INADEQUATE ON A LEVEL ROAD, AND ARE DANGEROUS ON ROLLING TERRAIN ROADS AND CURVES. THEY COULD BE POSSIBLY DESIGNED FOR STATIONARY USE IN A PERFECT ENVIORMENT BUT NOT FOR MOVING VEHICLES, I CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT, I FEAR NOT ONLY FOR MYSELF BUT FOR OTHER PEOPLE ON AND NEAR THE PATH OF THIS VEHICLE. MY MIND IS CLEAR, THERE ARE MANY BLOWING THE WHISTLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT WAS DEFECTIVE AND DID NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE LIGHT COVERAGE. THE CONTACT HAD TO ENGAGE THE HIGH BEAMS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER RAISED THE LOW BEAMS; HOWEVER; THE LIGHT COVERAGE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 300. ..UPDATED 05/09/16 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED RIGHT AFTER HE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, HE NOTICED WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, WITH THE LOW BEAMS ON, HIS VISIBILITY WAS APPROXIMATELY 30 FEET TO THE FRONT AND SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE HIGH BEAMS WERE ON, HE WAS ABLE TO SEE AHEAD OF HIM, BUT THE VIEW WAS STILL LIMITED TO ONLY 30 FEET. UPDATED 05/16/16.*JB

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE SO POOR, WE HATE DRIVING IT AT NIGHT! I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY DID AN "UPGRADE" OF DIFFERENT BULBS AND CHANGED THE VOLTAGE. THIS WAS OF LITTLE HELP. NOW, ONE OF THE UPGRADED BULBS HAS ALREADY GONE OUT OF MY LESS THAN ONE YEAR OLD TRUCK.

HEADLIGHTS ARE FAR TO DIM AND DIRECTIONAL TO DRIVE SAFELY AT NIGHT. HAD THE LIGHT FIX DONE AT DEALER. NOW HORIZONTAL BLACK LINE GOING DOWN HILL MEAN YOU CAN ONLY SEE A VERY SHORT DISTANCE IN FRONT OF YOU? HEADLIGHTS STILL INADEQUATE .

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND MAKE IT HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL SITUATIONS WHERE AN ACCIDENT WAS MORE LIKELY DUE TO THE DIM LIGHTING.

HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE IS VERY POOR WITH WEAK YELLOW BEAM BOTH ON LOW AND HIGH BEAMS. DIFFICULTY SEEING DURING NIGHT DRIVING, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN DARK AREAS, IS VERY HAZARDOUS, EVEN WORSE DURING RAIN. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND THAT OF MY FAMILY WHILE DRIVING THIS TRUCK AT NIGHT. THE PROJECTOR-STYLE HEADLAMPS ON THE VEHICLE WERE DIM WITH A YELLOW COLOR AND PROVIDED INADEQUATE FRONT AND SIDE ILLUMINATION. THE HEADLIGHT AIM WAS RAISED, WHICH RESULTED IN LITTLE IMPROVEMENT.

PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS ON 2015 SIERRA IS VERY DIM COMPARED TO OTHER VEHICLES. TRIED ADJUSTING BUT DID NOT HELP. VERY POOR VISIBILITY IN UNLIT DARK ROADS AND STREETS AND POSES RISK. I TRIED BRINGING IT TO THE DEALER BUT THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I MENTIONED SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS INCLUDING A CLASS ACTION LAW SUITE THAT WAS FILED IN CALIFORNIA IN OCTOBER 2015. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE ARE NO OTHER ALTERNATIVES WITH THE EXCEPTION OF PURCHASING AFTERMARKET HEADLIGHTS. I WOULD LIKE GMC TO FIX THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. APPARENTLY THEY DID AS THEY CHANGED THE 2016 MODELS' HEADLAMPS AND INCORPORATED HIGHER LUMENS ON LIGHTING, WHY CHANGE IT IF IT WAS NOT A PROBLEM IN THE FIRST PLACE? IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE PEDESTRIANS AND OBJECTS AT NIGHT.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW AUGUST 2015. THE HEADLIGHT PROJECTION AND ILLUMINATION ON THIS VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY POOR ESPECIALLY DURING WET ROADS OR RAINING CONDITIONS. I HAVE TO USE THE FOG LIGHTS AT ALL TIMES AND STILL DO NOT HAVE ADEQUATE LIGHTING. I FEEL THIS SITUATION CAN AND WILL RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO LACK OF PROPER LIGHTING. I WAS APPALLED TO FIND OUT GENERAL MOTORS ONLY USE A SINGLE HALOGEN BULB INSTEAD OF A DUAL FILAMENT LAMP OR A COMBINATION LOW AND HIGH BEAM LAMPS. I PERSONALLY NEARLY HIT A PEDESTRIAN DURING A RAINY SITUATION, AND ALSO FEEL UNSAFE OPERATING THIS VEHICLE AT DARK.

HEADLIGHT DESIGN IS TERRIBLE. I GET AT BEST 40FT. OF LIGHT PROJECTION ON LOW. WHEN THE HIGH BEAMS ARE ENGAGED I GET NO FURTHER PROJECTION BUT I GET A HIGHER PROJECTION. IT DOES A GREAT JOB LIGHTING THE TOPS OF THE TREES BUT THAT'S ABOUT ALL. UNBELIEVABLE SAFETY HAZARD WHILE DRIVING IN RURAL SOUTHWEST FLORIDA.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE SUFFICIENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,500.

THE LOW BEAMS ONLY ILLUMINATE 40 TO 50 FEET DOWN THE ROAD. THE HIGH BEAMS PROVIDE VERY POOR VISIBILITY. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO SIDE ILLUMINATION. THIS IS A CHALLENGING VEHICLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

PROJECTOR-STYLE HEADLAMPS ON 2015 GMC SIERRA PROVIDE INADEQUATE ILLUMINATION-EVEN AFTER MANUFACTURER SERVICE BULLETIN WAS PERFORMED, STILL VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT IN AREA WITH NO STREET LIGHTS-LITERALLY NO SIDE ILLUMINATION, AND DISTANCE IN FRONT OF VEHICLE IS NOT ILLUMINATED ADEQUATELY. GMC (GM) CHANGED HEADLAMP DESIGN IN 2016 TO CORRECT THIS, BUT HAS OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE TO OWNERS OF 2014-15 VEHICLES. I'VE HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS WITH DEER AT NIGHT DUE TO SUCH POOR LIGHTING. MY PREVIOUS, 10 YR. OLD TRUCK HAD BETTER HEADLIGHTS! HOPEFULLY SOMETHING CAN BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. COMPLAINED TO DEALER, TO GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE, NOW WHAT? SEEMS THE MANUFACTURER HAS NO PLANS TO HELP. HEADLAMP DESIGN WAS POOR, ONLY USES A SINGLE HALOGEN BULB FOR HIGH & LOW BEAM.

THE HEADLIGHTS WITH WHICH THIS VEHICLE ARE EQUIPPED ARE DIM AND UNSAFE. I HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES, INCLUDING SEVERAL MADE BY GM, AND THIS ONE IS THE WORST. THE ILLUMINATION OF THE ROADWAY IS INSUFFICIENT TO DISCERN HAZARDS ON/NEAR THE ROADWAY AT NIGHT. THIS IS TRUE AT ANY REASONABLE SPEED AND IS MUCH, MUC HWORSE DURING INCLEMENT WX, PARTICULARLY WHEN RAINING.

THE PERFORMANCE OF THE GMC HEADLIGHTS SEEMS TO BE WAY BELOW PAR. THIS TRUCK HAS THE WORST HEADLIGHTS I HAVE EVER OWNED. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO MYSELF AND THE PUBLIC.

THE HEAD LIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE VERY BAD. I SPENT 45,000 DOLLARS ON SOMTHING THAT SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM. ON HIGH BEAMS THE DRIVERS SIDE HEAD LIGHT GOES ALMOST STRAIGHT OUT FROM THE TRUCK. ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE THE HIGH BEAM LIGHT GOES OUT TO LEFT . IT 'S LIKE THE RIGHT SIDE LIGHT IS GOING TO MIDDLE OF TRUCK. YOU CAN REALLY SEE IT ON A DARK ROAD WITH ROAD BANKS OR TREES ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ROAD.I TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY CHECKED IT OUT WITH ANOTHER TRUCK. BIG DEAL! THAT TELLS ME THAT BOTH TRUCKS ARE DOING THE SAME THING.( DAHAAA). I CALLED GMC AND FILED A COMPLAINT . THEY CALLED BACK AND SAID THEY TALKED TO THE DEALER AND THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT (.DAHAA.)...I HOPE NO ONE ASKS ME ABOUT THESE NEW TRUCKS????? I NEVER THOGHT I WOULD HAVE A TRUCK FROM THE DARKS AGAIN. I WAS WRONG. PLEASE FIX THE PROBLEM GM... THIS IS STUPID... THANKS FOR NOTHING.

MY 2015 GMC SIERRA'S HEADLIGHTS PROVIDE HORRIBLE VISIBILITY AT NIGHT, THE OEM PROJECTOR STYLE HEADLIGHTS INSTALLED IN THIS TRUCK ARE DIM, WEAK AND UNSAFE. I BROUGHT MY SIERRA BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY APPLIED TSB #PIT5374 AND UPGRADED THE HEADLIGHTS WITH THE VOLSA HIR BULBS. THIS UPGRADE PROVIDED A NOMINAL INCREASE IN BRIGHTNESS, BUT THE HEADLIGHTS ARE STILL DIM AND UNSAFE FOR USE WHILE DRIVING ON DARK ROADS OR IN THE RAIN. THE DO NOT PROVIDE ANY ILLUMINATION ON THE SIDE OF THE ROADS, ESPECIALLY ON DARK COUNTRY ROADS WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO SEE WILDLIFE AND OTHER POTENTIAL HAZARDS. THE DESIGN OF THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2014/2015 GMC SIERRA ARE SEVERELY DEFICIENT. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT GMC IS FULLY AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM, SO MUCH SO THAT THEY REDESIGNED THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2016 GMC SIERRA WHICH HAS THE SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER HID HEADLIGHTS. I HAVE ALREADY LOGGED A COMPLAINT AND SPOKE WITH REPRESENTATIVES FROM GMC WHO LOOKED INTO MY ISSUE AND THE END RESULT WAS THAT THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE THEY COULD DO.

THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE INADEQUATE FOR NIGHT DRIVING. BOTH LOW AND HIGH BEAMS DO NOT LIGHT UP ENOUGH AREA IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE NEARLY AS GOOD AS PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS. THE PROJECTOR STYLE LIGHTS ARE TOO FOCUSED AND DO NOT GIVE ENOUGH LIGHT TO THE SIDES TO SEE ADEQUATELY DOWN THE ROAD. GM IS OBVIOUSLY AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND PERFORMED A BCM UPDATE TO MY VEHICLE TO MAKE THE LIGHTS BRIGHTER BUT THAT FIX STILL DOESN'T RESOLVE THE ISSUE. 2016 MODEL YEARS HAVE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT HEADLIGHT ALLOWING THOSE TRUCKS TO SEE MUCH BETTER AT NIGHT WHICH TELLS ME THEY ARE AWARE OF THE LIGHTING ISSUES AND FIXED IT FOR THE 2016 GM TRUCKS.

THE HI/LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT USEABLE IN ANYTHING THAN CLEAR DRY WELL MARK ROADS. CAN NOT SEE THE SIDE ROAD TO TURN ON IT. IF I HAD KNOW THEY WERE THIS BAD WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THIS TRUCK.

HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. HIGH BEAMS PROVIDE NO ILLUMINATION TO THE FRONT SIDES OF THE VEHICLE. USING FOG LIGHTS WITH LOW BEAM IS ACTUALLY BRIGHTER THAN THE HIGH BEAMS. EVEN AFTER HAVING THE DEALER INSTALL NEW BULBS THE LIGHTING IS VERY WEAK IN A LOW ILLUMINATION AREA, I.E. NO MOON, NO STREET LIGHT, ROAD. WHEN MAKING A TURN IN AN UN LIT AREA I CAN'T EVEN SEE WHERE THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ENDS. THESE SO CALLED PROJECTOR TYPE HEADLIGHTS DON'T SEEM TO WORK VERY WELL. I KNOW FOR A FACT THE 2014 AND 2015 HAVE THE SAME SET UP. THE 2016 HAS A WHOLE NEW SET UP WITH HID LIGHTING AND WORK GREAT. THIS TELLS ME THAT GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY THEIR "FIX" ONLY IF YOU COMPLAIN, ISN'T FIXING ANYTHING... ON A TRIP IN THE SMOKEY MOUNTAINS IN GATLINBURG TN I NEARLY CRASHED OFF THE SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN. I COULD NOT SEE WHERE THE EDGE OF THE ROAD WAS. EVEN THE PASSENGERS ASKED ME "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR LIGHTS?" THE SAID "TURN ON YOUR HIGH BEAMS" AND I STATED, "THEY ARE ON". WE CAN'T BELIEVE THESE LIGHT PASS THE COMMON SENSE TEST..

90% OF MY DRIVING IS AT NIGHT. I DRIVE ON MIXED ROADWAYS. I FIND THAT THE HEADLAMPS ON MY GMC SIERRA ARE INADEQUATE AT BEST. I BROUGHT THE SIERRA TO THE DEALER, WHO PERFORMED A TSB, AND ALTHOUGH IT IMPROVED THE LIGHTING, IT IS STILL WAY BELOW PAR. IT'S AS IF I'M DRIVING A 20 YEAR OLD CAR WITH YELLOWED OUT LENS COVER. IN RAINY WEATHER, THE HEADLAMPS ARE NONEXISTENT.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY VEHICLE ARE UNSAFE FOR NIGHT DRIVING IN UNFAMILIAR ROADWAYS. BESIDES BEING VERY DIM, ANYTHING 60-70 FEET AHEAD OF YOU CAN'T BE SEEN. THERE IS A CUTOFF LINE THAT BLOCKS ROADSIDE OBJECTS AND THE CUTOFF TOP BAR THAT DOESN'T ILLUMINATE ROAD SIGNS OR STREET MARKERS. IMAGINE HOLDING A SHOE BOX TO YOUR FACE WITH BOTH END REMOVED AND THAT DESCRIBES DRIVING WITH THIS UNSAFE SYSTEM. I THOUGHT MINE WAY AN ISOLATED CASE BUT "PROBLEMS WITH GMC HEADLIGHTS" ON THE INTERNET CLEARLY SHOWS A MAJOR PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, BOTH LOW AND HIGH BEAM HEAD LAMPS FAILED TO FULLY ILLUMINATE, WHICH DIMINISHED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000. UPDATED 04/06/16*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE LIGHTS ARE WORKING, BUT THEY DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD WELL ENOUGH. UPDATED 11/21/2017*JS

HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT SAFE TO BE USED IN THE DARK. DRIVING ON CURVY, HILLY ROADS IS VERY DANGEROUS. CAN NOT SEE WELL. HIGH BEAMS BARELY DIFFERENT FROM LOW BEAMS. LIVE IN TOWN SO THIS WAS FIRST TIME OUT ON ROAD AT NIGHT. SCARY. CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LIKE IN RAIN OR SNOW STORM.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE TERRIBLE. VERY DIM LIGHT, CAN'T SEE TO SIDE WHILE MAKING A TURN. THE HIGH BEAMS DOESN'T MAKE MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE. CONTACTED GMC DIRECTLY AND THEY JUST REFER ME TO TH DEALERSHIP. LOOKING INTO AFTER MARKET LIGHTS. LOOKS LIKE THEY MAY NOT BE LEGAL.SO MANY COMPLAINTS WHEN WILL SOMETHING BE DONE?

I LEASED A 2015 GMC PICKUP AND AFTER DRIVING IT AT NIGHT FOUND THAT THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE VERY POOR AND THEY PROVIDE VERY LITTLE VISIBILITY ON LOW BEAM. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE ANSWER IS TO CHANGE A BULBS I WAS TOLD AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT I WOULD MOST LIKELY NOT EVEN NOTICE A DIFFERENCE. THEY ARE CORRECT THE LIGHTS ARE STILL AT A POINT THAT IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE TRUCK AT NIGHT. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THESE TRUCKS SO THEY ARE STILL BEING SOLD OFF THE LOT AND THEY ARE DANGEROUS. IF YOU WOULD TAKE THE TIME TO DRIVE ONE AT NIGHT YOU MIGHT HAVE A BETTER IDEA OF WHAT PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT. IF I CAN I AM GOING TO GET RID OF THIS TRUCK AS FAST AS I CAN SINCE GMC DOES NOT SEEM TO WANT TO ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEBODY IS KILLED DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I ONLY WISH SOMETHING WOULD BE DONE BEFORE THE DEATHS START TO HAPPEN.

DRIVING HOME FROM LATROBE IN THE RAIN I COULD NOT SEE WITH THE LIGHTS . THE LIGHTS HAVE BLIND SPOTS IN THEM AND I HAVE HAD THEM CHANGED ONCE ALREADY. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THEY WERE HAVING SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE LIGHTS IN THESE VEHICLES. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE OF THE BLIND SPOTS WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS OCCURRING NOT ONLY IN THE RAIN BECAUSE THE NIGHT BEFORE NICE CLEAR NIGHT THE SAME SHADING COMING FROM THESE LIGHTS. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK AT NIGHT BECAUSE OF THE HEADLIGHTS. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS A SAFETY HAZARD . *TR

2015 GMC SIERRA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE HEAD LIGHTS ARE TOO DIM. *SMD

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 GMC SIERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS LOW BEAM FAILED TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE LIGHT COVERAGE MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND THE HIGH BEAM ALSO FAILED TO PROVIDE SUFFICIENT LIGHT COVERAGE. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE OPERATING AS DESIGNED. THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 731.

HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED BY THE DEALER TWICE. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE A SINGLE BULB DESIGN (LOW AND HIGH BEAMS FROM ONE BULB). IF LOW BEAMS ARE ADJUSTED TO ADEQUATELY SEE THE ROAD DURING NIGHT DRIVING THE HIGH BEAMS POINT INTO THE AIR (APPROX. 10 FEET IN THE AIR AT 100 FEET FROM THE VEHICLE). IF THE BEAMS ARE ADJUSTED TO ALLOW THE HIGH BEAMS TO ILLUMINATE THE ROAD PROPERLY; WHEN SWITCHED TO THE LOW BEAMS THERE IS INSUFFICIENT LIGHT ON ROAD TO DRIVE SAFELY AT 55 MPH. *TR

VEHICLE LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS HAVE VERY POOR COVERAGE AND BRIGHTNESS. WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. THEY BARELY LIGHT THE ROAD IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND COVERAGE SIDE TO SIDE IS VERY WEAK. ADDITIONALLY WHEN IT IS RAINING OUT, IT IS LIKE DRIVING WITH NO HEADLIGHTS ON AT ALL. TO HAVE BETTER HEAD LIGHTS I WOULD HAVE HAD TO BUY SPECIAL LIGHTING OPTION AVAILABLE ONLY ON A HIGHER-UP MODEL OF GMC SIERRA TRUCK. ALL MODELS OF GMC SIERRA 2015 TRUCKS SHOULD HAVE ADEQUATE HEADLIGHTS WITHOUT HAVING TO BUY THE TOP/ MORE EXPENSIVE MODEL TO GET THEM. GMC SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECALL ALL GMC SIERRA 2015 TRUCKS AND REFIT THEM WITH ADEQUATE LIGHTING BEFORE BAD ACCIDENTS OCCUR AS A RESULT OF THIS DEFICIENCY. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED SUCH POOR LIGHTING WITH A VEHICLE DRIVING AT NIGHT OR IN RAIN. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE ON A NEW GMC TRUCK. *TR

THE PROJECTION STYLE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY SUFFICIENTLY ENOUGH AT NIGHT TO TRAVEL MORE THAN 30 MPH. WHILE TRAVELING ON RURAL AND MOUNTAIN ROADS YOU CANNOT SEE FAR ENOUGH TO SEE OBSTRUCTIONS, WILDLIFE OR PEDESTRIANS AT NIGHT. THE HORIZONTAL CUTOFF LINE OF THE LIGHTS ON LOW BEAM DOES NOT ALLOW YOU TO SEE THE TOPS OF SMALL RISES IN THE ROADWAY AS CLOSE AS 30 FEET AWAY. WITH THIS STYLE OF PROJECTION LIGHTING THERE IS NO SPILLAGE OF LIGHT ABOVE ESTABLISHED LIGHT SHADE COVER SETTING ON LOW BEAMS. IT IS COMPLETELY DARK ABOVE THIS LINE WITH LOW BEAMS SELECTED. THIS DOES NOT GIVE THE DRIVER A CHANCE TO SEE OBJECTS IN THE ROADWAY AT A SAFE DISTANCE TO ALLOW FOR SAFE BRAKING OR AVOIDANCE. THE HIGH BEAM SETTING IS PITIFULLY WEAK IN INTENSITY. I MUST STRAIN TO SEE OUT AT THE DISTANCE NECESSARY TO STOP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS MEANS I MUST TRAVEL WITH HIGH BEAMS ON WHEN FACING ONCOMING TRAFFIC ON THE INTERSTATES. I HAD TWO PREVIOUS TRUCKS OF THIS SAME BRAND THAT HAD WONDERFUL LIGHTING AND I SURE WISH I HAD THAT LIGHTING ON THIS TRUCK. GM IS DOING THE MOTORING PUBLIC A MAJOR DISSERVICE WITH THIS LIGHTING PACKAGE AND ENDANGERING ANYONE AND ANYTHING THAT MAY BE ON THE ROAD AHEAD OF THEIR TRUCKS! *TR

THE HEAD LIGHTS ON THIS TRUCK ARE OF POOR DESIGN AND ARE VERY WEAK. THE LIGHTS DO NOT ADEQUATELY LIGHT THE ROAD AHEAD OR THE SHOULDERS. THEY WILL BECOME A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR IN CRASHES AND DEATHS UNLESS THEY ARE IMPROVED! I CAN'T BELIEVE THESE HEADLIGHTS WOULD PASS THE MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR ILLUMINATION IF FOLLOW UP TESTING IS DONE IN POOR WEATHER CONDITIONS. *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS A 2 PHASE(LOW/HIGH BEAM) SINGLE LIGHT THAT IS EXTREMELY WEAK/DIM TO THE POINT WHERE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THE EXISTING LIGHTS ARE ACCEPTABLE AND PASSED WHATEVER STANDARD/REGULATION REQUIRED. AT NIGHT, WITH THE LOW BEAMS YOU GET ABOUT 30-50FT OF LIGHT OUTPUT WHICH EQUATES TO LESS THEN A SECOND OF REACTION TIME WHEN DRIVING. THE HIGH BEAMS SIMPLY LIGHTUP ROAD SIGNS TO THE POINT OF BLINDNESS WITH IT REFLECTION BUT DOES NOT LIGHT UP THE ROAD. I TYPICALLY DON'T WRITE UNLESS I FEEL THIS IS COMPLETELY WRONG. GM WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE ANYTHING BUT IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THERE ARE SERIOUS INJURIES AND/OR DEATH DUE DIRECTLY TO THIS PROBLEM. I AM NOW SPENDING ANOTHER $800(ON TOP OF THE $55000) I PAID FOR THIS TRUCK TO GET AFTERMARKET HID LIGHTS. CAN YOU PROVIDE FEEDBACK AS THIS HAS BEEN A CONCERN AMONGST ALL OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE. I CAN'T BELIEVE GM IS SWEEPING THIS ISSUE UNDER THE RUG SORT OF SPEAK. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH OWNERS WHO HAVE BEEN REFUNDED ANYWHERE BETWEEN $200-900 BUT THEY MUST SIGN CONFIDENTIALITY FORMS PRIOR TO RELEASE SO SOMETHING IS BEING HIDDEN. (PS-I LIVE IN ONTARIO CANADA...WONT LET ME INPUT CANADIAN RESIDENCE BELOW). *TR

AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE VEHICLE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROVIDE SUFFICIENT ILLUMINATION TO OPERATE IN A SAFE MANNER. THIS LACK OF LIGHTING RESULTS IN AN AVOIDABLY UNSAFE PRACTICE OF OVERDRIVING THE HEADLIGHTS. THE HEADLIGHTS SHOULD ILLUMINATE FAR ENOUGH IN FRONT SO THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO OVERDRIVE YOUR LIGHTS AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE HORRID AND PROVIDE VERY POOR ILLUMINATION. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY ON COUNTRY ROADS WITH NO STREET LIGHTS. HEADLIGHT DESIGN SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY HAZARD. YOU'D THINK AFTER SPENDING $ 60,000 ON A PICKUP TRUCK IT WOULD COME WITH SOME DECENT HEADLIGHTS. NOT THE CASE ON THE GMC SIERRA. *TR

OPERATED TRUCK FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A RURAL AREA AT NIGHT YESTERDAY. LOW BEAMS PROVIDE INADEQUATE LIGHT BRIGHTNESS AND REACH. NO APPROPRIATE LATERAL LIGHTING. ONCOMING TRAFFIC "WASHED OUT" MY LIGHTING. CAN NOT EXCEED 30MPH WITHOUT JEOPARDIZING SAFETY. THESE HEADLAMPS ARE DANGEROUS ON LOW BEAM. HIGH BEAMS WERE SUFFICIENT. THE LIGHTS ARE A HAZARD TO THE TRAVELING PUBLIC AT LARGE. *TR

THE PROJECTOR HEAD LIGHTS ARE VERY POOR AT BEST. VERY LOW ILLUMINATION. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AT NIGHT. DRIVING IN SOME CONDITIONS IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AND THE SIDES OF THE ROAD. WHEN MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN THE DRIVER CANNOT SEE ANYTHING ON THE RIGHT. WHEN RAINING THE DRIVER CANNOT SEAT ALL. IT IS LIKE DRIVING A 1960 VINTAGE VEHICLE. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE WEB. I NOTIFIED GMC ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THE RESPONSE IS THE LIGHTS WORK AS DESIGNED. THIS IS A TERRIBLE DESIGN.THERE WILL BE ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS ISSUE. GM SHOULD BE PROACTIVE BEFORE THERE ARE FATALITIES. I HOPE THAT NOTIFYING YOU THAT YOU WILL HELP SOLVE THIS. *TR
