Description of the problem | 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! |
