Defect Description:
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
Vehicle headlights flicker on/ off momentarily at random when travelling at night. The flickering is NOT the automatic high beam function. When flickering occurs vehicles ahead may believe the lights are being flashed at them. GM issued a repair order to replace headlights but has since stopped performing replacement because problem has not been solved.

Defect Description:
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
My GMC Canyon has an issue with flickering of the headlights at night, which sometimes results in one side or the other going completely out. I'm part of several Canyon forums, and this seems to be an issue with most 2024 Canyons. The flicker is more of an annoyance, as I can still see, but I do believe it blinds oncoming drivers when it happens, as they flash me. Obviously headlights going completely out is another issue. I have not had both go out at the same time, but many others have. The flicker happens every time my headlights are on. The total outage has only happened once. I did contact the dealership where I purchased this, and they said this is a known issue with no resolution yet. They sent me TSB #PIT6203, which states there is a known issue with the "issue internal to the LED controller that is part of the headlamp assembly". This TSB initially had a fix of replacing the headlight assemblies, but was updated in July to instruct dealers not to do that, as it doesn't fix the issue.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
The headlights in front of truck are doing a flicker here and there. It is happening by itself, during normal operation. It kind of looks like I'm flashing my high beams when it happens. People may think I'm flashing my high beams at them when I'm not. I think other people are having the same issue with this GMC truck. I have not contacted GM waiting to see if they will publish something, since it seems like they are now aware of the issue?

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The headlights flicker off and on every 30 seconds or so while driving or stationary. This occurs no matter what setting the headlight are in. Other drivers think I am flashing my lights at them and have responded negatively by brake checking me in traffic, flashing their high beams at me when oncoming etc. I am worried that the lights may flicker off and stay off while driving at night. The dealer has recreated the problem but still has no fix. My truck has been in the dealer's shop since mid July.

Potential Consequences:
The issue involves the headlight assemblies flickering frequently. The whole headlight assembly will randomly turn off and on, one at a time typically. It will cause temporary loss of sight down road at night. I have also noticed other motorists flash their brights at me thinking that's what the flicker was, so it's causing disruptions to other drivers as well. GM is aware of the issue but has no fix in place and no timeframe for the fix.
