Pontiac Grand Prix Exterior Lighting Headlights Safety Report | Apr 16, 2004
Reported on Apr 16, 2004
| HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY: BOTH HEADLIGHTS ON THE FRONT ARE BOUNCING / SHAKING WHEN YOU DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THIS IS EASILY DUPLICATED WHEN YOU DRIVE THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENING WHEN IT'S DARK. *AK ONCOMING VEHICLES HAVE FLASHED THERE HIGH BEAMS BECAUSE OF THE RESULT OF THE LIGHTS SHAKING UP AND DOWN. THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY IS LOOSE AND THIS IS COMMON WITH OTHER 2004 PONTIAC GRAND PRIXS (ACCORDING TO A PONTIAC MESSAGE BOARD). I PHONED PONTIAC REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD THEY ARE LOWERING THE HEADLIGHT BEAM CLOSER TO THE GROUND FROM THE FRONT OF VEHICLE . THIS WILL REDUCE VISIBILITY IN NIGHT TIME DRIVING AND WILL NOT SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. THE HEADLIGHTS WILL CONTINUE TO BOUNCE & SHAKE, BUT WILL NOT BOUNCE HIGH IN THE AIR BLINDING OTHER DRIVERS. | |
