2024 GMC CANYON Complaints

HEADLIGHTS FLICKER OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN INTERMITTENTLY / OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD THINK YOU'RE FLASHING THEM / KNOWN ISSUE PUBLICLY VEHICLE IN DEALERSHIP WITH NO SOLUTION FOR OVER A MONTH / NO WARNING LIGHTS OR CODES TO ACKNOWLEDGE

Headlights and DRLs flicker at night when in on position. GMC with no fix and no timeline as to when. Safety issue driving at night. First started at 49 miles on odometer. Now at 1800 miles and still ongoing.

LED Headlamps blink off and back on in a fraction of a second. Occurs when vehicle is moving or parked. Can be replicated in daylight by manually turning headlights on in the control center. GM documented with Document ID 6691954 "#PIT6203: Headlamp or DRL Flicker or Flash (July 16, 2024) Possible hazards include oncoming drivers being flashed from flicker. Oncoming drivers thinking they're being signaled by the flicker. Pedestrians or cyclists thinking the flash or flicker is signaling them to proceed and that vehicle operator will yield. Possible that headlamps will stay off when they flicker, rendering the driver unable to see during night driving. Since the PIT6203 was created (with the recommended action of replacing headlamp assemblies), GMC is now advising to NOT replace them, but offers no further solution. I've received no official word from GMC or the dealership on that, but while they explore a solution, I'm driving a brand new vehicle with a potentially dangerous manufacturing / build flaw. Please consider escalating this issue to a formal recall due to dangers outlined above.

My headlights flicker or blink without warning and I feel that they could fail while on the highway. I purchased my truck on the 1st of August 2024. Gm had issued a service letter for the problem on the 30th of July 2024 but they still sold me truck without mentioning the defect.

Both headlights blink randomly. Causes unsafe driving conditions at night as well as possibility for road rage interaction at any time.

Headlights have a frequent flickering issue. They are constantly flickering on and off. Truck only has 600 miles on it.

Headlights consistently flicker. I have had other drivers stop me and warn me. Happens every 1-2 minutes on both sides. GM dragging their feet with a repair. I am hearing multiple customers with the same issue. Please put pressure on GM to correct this issue now!

Headlights are flickering intermittently, causing oncoming drivers to think they are being bright lighted. Which causes them to bright light me. Also, headlight flickering causes trailed vehicle drivers to think I am signaling them to stop. Both situations are hazardous, in my opinion.

Approximately every minute while driving with the headlights on, they will turn off/flicker for a split-second. This makes it seem like I’m flashing my lights at other vehicles, and also makes the lights turn off while driving for a split second which is distracting. This has happened since the vehicle was purchased new and it happens any time the headlights are turned on.

Headlight flickering causing vehicles infront of my truck to slow down or break. Been to dealership multiple times for headlight problem. Recent headlight assembly replacement. Headlight flickering still present in truck after headlight assembly replacement. Blind spot indicators intermittently work, on highway, had couple times I relied on indicators that did not illuminate. Dealer could not find issue but same day I picked up truck from service, blind spots weren’t picking up some vehicles either passing or getting passed. Steering wheel noise when turning. Dealer took part steering column, but could not find a problem. Was told it was just sound from motor in steering column. Test drive exact model truck and year, no noise from that truck while turning steering wheel
