Silhouette

  • 130,020 miles
Head lamps on this vehicle have started to haze. The haze has been getting progressively worse restricting the amount of light. I have found that it is getting increasingly difficult to see the road at 40mph or higher in the evening. The turn signals have a clear lens over them and do not appear to have the same condition. I have contacted GM. With multiple calls, E-mails and a trip to the dealer over a two week time frame, I was contacted by GM and told that although it was a safety hazard, there was nothing that they could do. My contention to GM was I'm sure when this vehicle was released for production they had no idea this condition existed and has for several years since. I felt that the lenses should be replaced under warranty.
