  • 12,635 miles
I own a 2012 Corvette grandsport purchased new. Car has 12,635 miles in it. I was driving into town last night and head lights just shut off leaving me in complete darkness. I was coming into tuscaloosa and managed was fortunate to have enough area lighting to safely come to a stop and pull into a parking lot. I tried what I knew to try but lights would not come back on. I was able to hold the turn signal switch in the flash position to get high beams to work. I turned around and headed back home continuing to hold turn signal switch in flash position. Unfortunately, I was blinding the oncoming traffic. I can't imagine what might've happened if I had been on a country road with no lightning. I've been reading about recall issues on earlier models of the C6 I've also read this could be a faulty relay problem. My car has low miles and less than 25% of those miles were night driving. Car is garage kept and has never been driven in the rain so I know how well it has been taken care of. Please advise if others have had same problem

The driver and passenger side main headlight assembly is a sealed unit and cannot be repaired. The seals in both units in my car are defective and that allows moisture and environmental contaminates to collect inside the unit and fog up the main lenses that the driving headlights project through. I cannot be taken apart and repaired. Each assembly part costs over $1,200 plus labor. To fix both sides is $3,000. This is a safety issue. Not only does it diffuse the light at night and not Focus correctly down the highway, it also causes high degree of glare for drives approaching my car head on. I do not want to increase chances of a head on collision or crash due to poor visibility at night. This is a safety issue for me as well as approaching drivers. I called Chevrolet to report and they refuse to help in any way. I also asked about assistance with paying the repair bill but they would not. On internet, there are many message boards discussing the same issues with other people's vehicles. The safety board should create a safety recall and have the manufacturer replace at their expense these defective headlight assemblies.
