Headlamp harness keeps burning causing headlamp to fail to illuminate. Have replaced multiple bulbs as well as both harnesses within the last 6 months and again, harness has burnt and my low beam headlamps do not work. Reading similar complaints, I believe it has to do with the daytime running light feature. I've noticed the issue both when the vehicle is moving and when it's stationary. While there hasn't been a fire as a result of this issue yet, I'm sure it's just a matter of time.

I have changed my passenger headlight bulb several times and it still does not work every time I have to fix it I am charged $100 or more. Also I have had to change the motor to my drivers side window twice. This also also happened to my 2000 Chevy Malibu. It seams like this model has many issues.

I own two 2012 Chevy Malibu--the headlights on each have went out no less than 4 times each. This has to be a design or manufacture issue. Even with the pigtals being replaced the headlights continue to go out.

High and low beam headlights. I have had to replace headlights on my car 3 times within 3 months. I searched for a problem with that car and any complaints. I found no recall but GM but 274 complaints about headlight problems. The headlights will just go off during driving. Very dangerous. What can be done. It very expensive to replace bulbs because you have to drop the bumper but the bulb is not the problem. How can we get General Motors to recall and fix this problem for 274 people? I can tell you the very last time this happen.

Is having to constantly replace low beam headlight. My headlights have both went out 3 times within 6 months. This is very costly repair because the front bumper has to be removed in order to get to the headlight.

My low beams and now high beam headlights keep going out. Replaced three times and two on the other side. Costs over 150 each time. Driving or when I go to start car is when they go out and only once after hitting bump it came on. There are thousands of people reporting same problem on car guru. Type in your car make and model and year with headlight problems and you will see how many drivers are effected by this and have to keep paying. I also got pulled over 5 times in 2 months for headlights. This is a problem and needs the maker to take responsibility. I also can get records from dealership of all work paid for.

On two occassions the power steering suddenly went completely out while on the highway. Since I got the car 2 years ago I have had many issues with the lighting amd electrical. The brake light works when it chooses to even if K done push the brake and with new bulbs it may not work. The headlights do the same. They come on and go off when they choose to. I have replaced bulbs over 20 times in the past 2 years when I didn't actually have to. My sensors also don't work which I was told was an electrical issue. I have a front light that won't go off so each time I cut the car off I have to unplug my battery so it doesn't die. The date posted isnt the only date its happened it was the day it all started.

Driver side headlamps going out. I've had to replace my driver's side headlight 3 times over the last 2 months. No automobile should go through headlamps at that rate. To complicate this issue, the entire front bumper must be removed to change the headlights. I've read on the forums where many Malibu owners are having the exact same issue(s) with the headlamps. This is an obvious design flaw and GM/Chevrolet should issue a recall with corrective action.

My dim headlight keeps burning out and I kept having to change my bulbs. To come to find out it was my wiring harness and I've had to change it twice. My bright lights do good. It's just the dim lights. Please recall this. It's a headache trying to fix this problem once or twice a month. I've also read that several other people's Chevy Malibu headlights are messing up too. Everytime I pass a Malibu one of the headlights are burned out. Please fix this problem. Thank you.

Low beam headlight going out. I purchased this vehicle in 2014 and my low beam headlights have gone out a total of 6 times. Changed the pigtails last time and iam now having to change the wiring harness completely and hopefully that will help. My cars lights are always on auto and always begins with my passanger low beam light going out first then the driver side a couple months after, has happened when turning on the vehicle and during driving. My high beams work fine with no problems at all. The first two times I have had a proffesional mechanic change them and the last couple times I've changed them myself now due to cost. Removing the whole bumper really makes this even more difficult to change. I have read many forums and they have also the same problem, its actually become very common to see many Chevy's with a head light out. I just want to make sure this is noted cause it appears to be a common problem with this vehicle company. Please help!
