Headlights Flickering frequently while driving or parked. Causes other drivers in front of me to think I am high beaming them or flashing my lights at them. Causes quick moments of darkness and is disorienting when driving at night. No warning lights or signs of damage. This issue has been reported by many other vehicle owners and currently GM has not published a solution. Other vehicle owners reported that dealerships did not resolve the problem after replacing the headlight module and updating firmware. The solution is believed to be to replace the headlight assemble due to bad diodes during manufacturing. Headlights have done this since I bought the car.

Headlight flicker, affects day time running light, low beam, high beam and possibly taillights. Lighter flicker off and on periodically about every 1-2 minutes consistently regardless of driving or parked, and regardless if the lights are switched on automatically or manually. Problem has been continuous since purchase of vehicle 1 month ago.

The headlights on the truck turn off for a split second and continue to do so randomly. If I had to guess they are turning off and on every 5 minutes. This causes people in front of me to think I am flashing them and the bigger concern is if they were to not turn back on again. The dealer I brought it to said that GM is currently working on a software solution to figure out the problem. Researching this issue online I found that there is a TSB already filed (PIT6203) for this issue and it sounds like there is some success fixing the issue by swapping out the headlights but does not always fix the issue. GM has not come out with an official solution for this widespread issue yet.

- Barboursville, WV, USA

The headlights have an occasional flicker.

- The Colony, TX, USA

Headlights are continuously flickering and GM does not have a solution. This is concerning because drivers think I am constantly flashing my lights at them which has resulted in them flashing their brights at me. This could cause an accident, so I am very concerned about driving the truck at night. GM needs to address this immediately before someone is hurt.

- Phoenix, AZ, USA

As I've heard many others report, my Canyon has the headlight flicker problem that seems to be plaguing these vehicles. Driving during the night, the headlights will periodically go out every couple of minutes. It is very brief (less that 0.5 second) but very distracting and cannot be safe for other vehicles on the road.

- Brighton, CO, USA

Every few minutes the headlights flicker. GM does not have a fix for this currently.

- Gilbert, AZ, USA

The headlights while driving will flicker completely off. This happens during the daylight lights are on and at night when main headlights are on. This is very dangerous and concerning while driving at night when I have to drive on country roads where the headlights are vital. This issue also creates unnecessary confusion with other drivers as they are under impression I'm flashing my lights at them.

Flicking headlights

- Springfield, IL, USA

Headlights flicker every couple of minutes. Very concerning driving at night. Incoming traffic thinks I-??m flashing them. Not good these days. Contacted dealer. They are aware there is a problem. They stated that GM has not come up with a fix yet. To me that answer is unacceptable.

- Sulphur Springs, TX, USA

Headlights flicker on and off randomly. Anywhere from every 30 s to a couple of minutes.

- Maryville, MO, USA

Headlights turn off and on randomly every few seconds. No fault lights on dashboard. Dealership confirmed issue exists. Dealership was advised to replace control module by GM. This did not fix the issue. Advised to change headlight assemblies but they are backordered with no ETA. This issue causes confusion to other drivers and is a safety hazard while driving at night. No recall issued yet.

- Lafayette, IN, USA

Driver-??s and passenger side daytime running lights and headlights flicker off randomly. This creates the potential that the lights may fail while needed at night leaving the driver without forward illumination. It has lead to drivers in front of me thinking I-??m flashing my lights at them while following which in turn the driver in front of me slows down excessively in protest of their belief that I am flashing lights at them. I-??ve also had oncoming traffic flash their high beams at me believing I activated my high beams at them thereby creating an unnecessary blinding situation. The flashing could be interpreted by either oncoming traffic or a pedestrian that I am yielding the right of way when I actually am not and lead to a motor vehicle accident or a pedestrian being struck or at minimum put at risk.
