THE SHIFT LINKAGE TUBE CROSSES OVER THE FUEL LINE AT THE TOP OF THE ENGINE. WHEN SHIFTING OUT OF PARK, THE TUBE MOVES. THE MOVEMENT OF THIS TUBE IS ABRADING THE THE INSULATION ON THIS FUEL LINE.

THE HEADLAMPS ON THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO DIM OCCASIONALLY WHEN I WOULD COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THEN WHEN MY VEHICLE HIT 140000 MILES THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS STOPPED WORKING EVEN AFTER I CHANGED THE BULBS. NOW ONLY MY HIGH BEAMS WORK, THIS IS NOT SAFE.

RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE JANUARY 2015. GM SAFETY RECALL #14291. CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 14V-755. AS OF NOVEMBER 2015, PARTS STILL NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX AFFECTED HEADLAMP DRIVER MODULE. HAVE TALKED TO BUICK. THEY HAVE NO TIMEFRAME FOR PARTS BEING AVAILABLE. I HAVE TALKED TO NTSA, THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF THE RECALL. BUICK TOLD ME THEY HAVE A TEMPORARY FIX, BUT ALSO TOLD ME THE HIGH-BEAM LIGHTS WILL WORK, SO I CAN DRIVE WITH THOSE ON. I DON'T THINK THAT IS AN ACCEPTABLE SOLUTION. MY TWO PRIMARY CONCERNS ARE: (1) BUICK ISSUED A RECAL AND 10 MONTHS LATER CANNOT FIX THE DEFECTIVE PARTS AND HAS NO ESTIMATE FOR WHEN THEY CAN (2) NTSA HAS NO RECORD OF THIS RECALL NOTICE OR THAT THIS VEHICLE NEEDS REPAIRS.

THE REGULAR LIGHTS WIIL GO OUT WHILE DRIVING, DAY OR NIGHT. SOMETIMES THE HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT COME AT ALL OR ONLY ONE SIDE (DRIVER OR PASSENGER SIDE) WILL COME ON. I HAVE TO OFTEN DRIVE AROUND AT NIGHT USING MY HIGH-BEAMS. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORST, AS THE LIGHTS WILL NOT COME ON FOR DAY. BUICK SERVICE CENTER WANTS TO CHARGE $600 TO REPLACE HEADLIGHTS AND RELAYS, EVEN THOUGH IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR CARS OF THE SAME MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR.

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT THE LOW BEAMS TURN OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE AND SURFACE STREETS

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT THE LOW BEAMS TURN OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS OCCURED 4 TIMES, 1 ON THE INTERSTATE, 3 ON SURFACE STREETS. VERY DANGERUOS COULD CAUSE A HEAD ON COLLISION, OR DRIVER TO LEAVE THE ROADWAY.

THE HEADLAMP DRIVER MODULE MAY BE OVERHEATING OR CUTTING OUT AND FAIL, CAUSING THE HEADLAMPS AND DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS TO NOT ILLUMINATE AT RANDOM TIMES WHEN CAR IS DRIVING OR PARKED.

I NOTICED ONE DAY WHEN I WAS DRIVING MY LIGHTS WOULD NOT COME ON JUST THE HIGH BEAM WORKS BUT NOT THE LOW BEAM SO I HAVE TO BE HOME BEFORE DARK BECAUSE I CAN NOT USE MY LIGHTS I KNOW IT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR IT.

TWICE NOW, MY HEADLIGHTS WILL NOT ILLUMINATE. THE FIRST TIME IT RECTIFIED ITSELF. THIS TIME IT HAS NOT RECTIFIED. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WHEN I MANUALLY TURNED OFF THE HEADLIGHTS. I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AND MANUALLY TURNED THEM BACK ON AND NOTHING HAPPENED. RUNNING LIGHTS AND HIGH BEAMS DO FUNCTION (14V755000) BUT I AM IRRITATING A LOT OF DRIVERS WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON. WHAT CAN I DO UNTIL THIS RECALLED PART IS AVAILABLE? I HAVE TRIED TO GET IT SERVICED AT MY GM DEALER BUT THEY HAVE NO RECALL INFORMATION.
