The contact owns a 2011 GMC Sierra 1500. The contact stated that the low beam headlights shorted randomly since 2011. The vehicle was taken to the dealer twice, but was unable to replicate and diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and recommended that the vehicle be taken to a second dealer. The contact had been waiting for years for the manufacturer to provide a remedy. The failure mileage was not available.
