“Running day lights flicker as well as the emergency lights on Auto Day Light setting . I was driving in the daytime, and I had two people honk at me because they thought I was trying to get their attention with my lights. The cars behind me also looked concerned since the emergency lights were turning on and off.”
NHTSA complaint #11609977, filed 2024-08“Only have had this vehicle about a month but almost every day I drive it during the day if it's even just partly cloudy, cloudy, or raining the autoheadlights just constantly flash on and off. Sensor clearly isn't working properly. If it's completely dark lights come on correctly and if it's very sunny they stay off but anything in between is just a constant flash. Not safe due to sight, but also can cause road rage of other drivers thinking I'm flashing them....”
NHTSA complaint #11581024, filed 2024-04“When it is too windy or rains my blindspot warning light will indicate there is something there when there isn't. I'm unsure of when I really started to notice it and watch for it to occur”
NHTSA complaint #11723448, filed 2026-03“Auto headlights turn headlights ON in sunshine. Then OFF in daytime shade. (when driving down a tree lined road, lights come on when not under tree shade, then off with every tree shade, gives the appearance I am flashing my headlights, same thing with underpasses, etc. Lights work properly at night.) Dealership said they had no idea what the problem was and would have to contact GM engineers in Korea. It has been 2 months so far with no information from dealer. …”
