Enclave 6-cyl

  • miles
Hid lights turn off after our 2011 Buick Enclave is driven after 30 seconds. Headlights come on when vehicle is first started at 4:30 a.M. and turns off as indicated above. Issue has been addressed by the Buick dealership but cannot determine the cause of the issue on three visits. There are no recalls from the manufacturer, as stated by the service advisor. Manipulating the controls is the only workaround. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
