The contact owns a 2009 Chevrolet Aveo. While driving on the highway at an unknown speed, the headlights went out abruptly. There were no warning indicators illuminated before or after the failure. The vehicle was taken to ourisman Chevrolet of bowie (16610 governor bridge rd, bowie, md) where it was currently awaiting diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The VIN was unknown. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
My dashboard light suddenly went out, at the same time the right tailgate light and the front right light went off. I checked online and a number of people having the exact same problem. It is a wiring issue

I notice that my left head light when out. I replace the bulb with a high price bulb but headlight was very dim. I then notice that my headlights went out all together and no high beams, but my high beam light indicator on my dashboard is on. Also I my radio display will go in and out sometimes.
The low beam headlights don't work anymore. Went to mechanic, who replaced bulbs with brand new ones, and they didn't work either. They tested fuses and said those were fine. They recommended I go to a Chevy dealership to fix it but don't have the money for all that. Running around at night to get home from work on a passenger-side daytime running light only, or high beams when no one's around. Help!
Left front headlight went dim at night. Replaced the bulb but did not fix the problem. When checking the wire to the bulb noticed burn marks. Front head light has went dim before but the suddenly started working again a while back.
The dash lights, shifter lights and all console lights are out. This appears to be a known problem as I have found it all over the Chevy forum. Is there a recall on this? not real safe especially for my 16 year old daughter. Please let me know the fix and if there is a recall I can apply to this not so unique problem
