Description of the problem | Cadillac division, gm llc c/o analytics consulting llc claim number: 1218800 we received a letter referencing issues with moisture to accumulate in headlamp capsules and/or dimming halogen headlights. The instructions were to take the vehicle to the dealership pay the $800/$1600 and get reimbursed with 90 days. If the headlight capsules are faulty would it be more productive to recall the headlights capsules and replace them for free. Our headlights need to be replaced however pay $1600. Is out of the questions. I have spoken to gmc customer service but they just transfer me to analytics consulting llc who insist the repair/replacement must be done first for reimbursement. Per the analytics consulting consultant and phone recording the deadline for reimbursement was june 30th which was during the height of the virus. Again because the headlight capsules is faulty a recall should be issued so that in these uncertain economic times can get the issue resolved with out having to come out of pocket $800/$1600. Because of the dimness of the headlights i am cautious about driving after dusk, and i use my high beams. |
