Description of the problem	My daughter had to be rushed to hospital in an ambulance. My other daughter and myself got in our 2009 chevrolet traverse and went to follow it. I turned on the car and had both low beam headlights fail. So there we were following the ambulance holding the highbeam switch on so that we could follow it and blinding everyone in our path. I brought it in to barton birks chevrolet in newburgh ny and they said both bulbs burned out at the exact same time. Strange and did not think anything about it until i read about the recall on gmc acadia's and saturn outlooks. As both of these share many of the same parts as my traverse i thought you might want to look into this as well. Thank you.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
