| Description of the problem | Heavy moisture is accumulating in the front left headlight with no cracks in the light. It is causing the left front turn signal to malfunction with a warning on our instrument panel. This causes a dangerous situation when when making left turns as the left turn signal is inoperative. Chevrolet is not accepting ownership of the faulty design, or part, or system and wants us to assume responsibility for the quoted $1200 in repair costs just to replace one headlight assembly. The extended warranty we purchased also won't cover it. I'm finding out through research that this is a common problem on this vehicle. Just over 50k miles on the vehicle! These should be recalled! |
