Consumer Description

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.
