The headlights on low beam have become so dull to create a safety issue with limited visibility. Mechanic claims that the bulbs ar ok and doesn't know why. I have seen many other people having the same complaint and feel that GM should issue a recall to correct.

Moisture has developed in the headlight assembly, corroding the reflective elements and making vision at night very dim and unsafe. This happens under any conditions requiring headlights. There are hundreds of complaints about this if not more-simple google up Cadillac Srx headlight problem. GM has reimbursed a few owners as a result of a lawsuit limited to a couple of states, but has not owned the problem. Please look more into this issue.

While driving after dark, headlights were very low brightness. I could barely see the road lines and driving in the rain, I had to use my high beamsto see the highway road markings.

Lights on 2015 Cadillac Srx luxury trim are very dim...almost to the point where no light is seen at night. Have been like that for over a year. I took it to the Cadillac dealership to check for moisture issues and was told that was fine. It was just the headlights...and nothing could be done. Dealership was very ineffective. Light output continued to worsen to where they are now. I constantly drive with bright lights. I can't see lines or turning lanes without proper lighting. I have also dodged accidents a few times due to other cars not seeing my lights. At night, I do not feel safe driving. I fear for the safety of others as well. I have emailed and called numerous times to no avail. Again, when driving with headlights that do not shine properly I can't see turning lanes and honestly my depth of vision is very low. Things, animals, have happened on my car at the last minute due to lack of lighting.

Our 2015 Cadillac Srx has extremely dim low beam headlights. They are so dim that we are afraid to drive the car at night. When we do drive at night, we drive with the high beams on because they have not be affected by the defect yet. Driving with the high beams on at all times is hazardous to other drivers, but the low beams are so dim, it is nearly impossible to see the road. There have been several class action lawsuits, but to date, GM refuses to address the flaw in the headlight assembly. According to the lawsuit, the seals GM used in the exterior headlight housing units wear out and deteriorate and allow moisture to accumulate and condense from the air that flows through the vents. However, the vents for the housing units are defective because they interfere with the flow of air through the faulty seals of the headlights. The condensation causes headlight problems that include failure of the bulbs due to corrosion of the components such as the igniters, in addition to electrical shorts that occur. Since 2011 and in an effort to do something about owners complaining about the headlights being too dim or failing completely, General Motors allegedly issued a customer satisfaction program and several technical service bulletins (tsbs). But the plaintiffs claim GM's efforts haven't fixed the dim headlights.

The low beam headlights are so dim its like you don't have any headlights on at all. The high beams work perfect. Its very dangerous to be driving this vehicle at night since the lights don't work properly.

- Ville Platte, LA, USA

Headlights are almost non existent during night driving, first noticed driving at night on state highway 35 from bay city Texas to palacios Texas November 13 2019 during intermittent rain showers...had to use brights to get any down road illumination.

While driving on I-95 at night, with oncoming traffic, legally forbidding the use of hi-beams, a deer, I believe, suddenly crossed the road, 50-75 feet in front of my vehicle. The low beams on the vehicle are so poor I was unable to see the deer until it was directly in front of the vehicle. I had to slam on the brakes and violently swerve to the right, leaving the road surface in a sideways slide, crossing the shoulder and finally stopping on the grass, heading down hill, only inches from a post. This lack of efficient head lighting, now known to be from headlight unit seal failure leading to low light levels from the projectors, caused this accident. The passenger struck her head on the passenger window and suffered a bump and bruise to the right side of her head. It is now my understanding that mitigating this seal failure will cost me about $1600 at the Cadillac dealer. Additionally, I understand that the only replacement available from Cadillac is the same unit that has failures and that no upgraded unit has been made. Additionally, I understand that Cadillac has been found liable in a class action suit regarding these faulty headlights in Florida and California, however, not in my state of residence, although, coincidentally, my accident occurred in Florida. These 300,000 vehicles need to be investigated from model years 2010 to 2016, as they all use the same halogen headlights. It is only a matter of time, unless already occurred, until loss of life is suffered from these inadequate headlight units. My partner, the primary driver of this vehicle, is now afraid to drive this car and will not drive it in any condition other than daylight, causing hardship on us.

I was driving down a city street at night at approximately 10 mph and my friend informed me that my head lights did not look like they were on at all. Since this incident, I asked another friend to drive ahead of me on a dark city street and tell me if my lights were on. His response was, "yes they are, but very dim. I am very worried about you driving at night"!!

Headlamps have become very dim which causes an unsafe condition when driving at night. In order to see the road I must use high beams. I am constantly switching off the high beams when an oncoming car approaches. Dealer has stated the problem is not the bulb but the projected lense in front of the bulb. The problem has gotten steadily worse.

Low beam headlights do not provide enough light to drive safely at night. This problem is known by GM and they refuse to honor the repairs. Many forums discuss this since it involves the Cadillac Srx from 2011-2015. All they go is replace the weather stripping around the light but that is not effective. My wife and I are pretty much confined to daytime driving because the low beams are so useless at night or in the rain that you really would be better off with candles. I was forced to drive for an emergency last night and almost had an accident on a country road because the lights did not light up the road good enough to see where I was driving. Service center said there was nothing they could do but there is. They have better headlight assemblies but will not replace them. GM just stalls and stonewalls the customer. I had the brightest low beam bulb replaced in both lights but the headlight design is the problem. Most expensive peace of trash I have ever owned. Been dealing with this since purchasing in 2017.
