Been experiencing an intermittent issue. After completing an indicated right hand turn, the vehicle will signal a left turn for 3 blinks. This is a safety issue because the vehicle is signaling a left turn when no turn is intended.
The headlights flicker on and off. Possibly to stay off. Other pedestrians think I-??m singling them to cross in front of me when I-??m not. Other drivers get angry because they think I-??m flashing my high beams. This is a huge safety issue
Both headlights intermittently flicker on and off during operation. This is distracting for the driver while driving at night, and also distracts other drivers both ahead and oncoming. Dealer has reviewed the issue and is awaiting direction from the manufacturer for best way to resolve. No warning lamps or fault codes occured. The issue began within 30 minutes of purchase leaving dealership.
When driving at night or anytime for that matter, and the low beams are engaged, the whole light housing will momentarily shut off and turn back on. This can cause safety issues, especially since it looks like you are flashing people. It happens randomly and affects both the driver side headlight and passenger side headlight. It will only stop if you turn the entire headlight housing off, or only have the daytime running lights on. I am unable to attach videos. This issue seems to affect 2024 GMC Canyons manufactured after April 2024.
My 2024 GMC Canyon AT4X picked up on Saturday 8/10/24. First time driving it at night I kept noticing a flickering of the headlights. I confirmed after reading multiple complaints online about the headlight blinking on many GMC forums. I have a video of it and have shown it to the dealership service department. They are ordering a lighting control module for the headlamp assembly. Very concerning that a headlight malfunction with less that 20 miles on the vehicle. And very noticeable at night almost looking like you are flashing your headlight at drivers in front of you.
Headlights blink intermittently when driving. The issue occurs every 2 min or so. The blinking may be construed by other road users as an indication to move over or other unintended confusion. Issue has been documented in a video.
The vehicle headlights flicker off and on intermittently, sometimes within a few seconds of each occurrence, other times several minutes between flickering off and on. The flickering is distracting to the driver of the vehicle and to other drivers as well as oncoming drivers flash lights back. The dealership has been notified and they are aware of other complaints on 2024 GMC Canyon vehicles. This is a known issue among other owners and apparently GM as the issue has been voiced on social media sites related to the Canyon and on Canyon related group forums.
Headlights flicker every minute or so. Sometimes every few seconds. Makes it appear that I-??m flashing oncoming traffic or those I-??m following. Appears GM has known about it for months but no fix yet. PIT6203A
Headlights flicker independently randomly. Does not matter what position headlights are in (auto, on, highbeam). GM looked and confirmed issue but said to not replace any modules or other parts until they can redesign the headlights. Happening on all 2024 GMC Canyons. Issue during daytime driving could lead to road rage. Issue at night is worse obviously because it is very distracting to oncoming and other drivers. Police could think you are trying to warn other drivers of their presence which would lead to a citation but mostly the distraction and irritation to other drivers is going to lead to an accident or worse. GMC needs to recall these Canyons and get a fix immediately.
I was driving at night and noticed both headlights would flicker off and then back on. Oncoming drivers on the highway were flashing their highbeams at me because they thought I was flashing my lights at them. My girlfriend was driving her new motorcycle home in front of me and had to pull over to ask why I kept flashing my lights at her. It was a very hazardous situation. The dealership ordered two new headlights for my vehicle and took several weeks to repair it.
Head lights flicker on and off both sides in a rapid succession. Lasts 2 seconds maximum then works for a few minutes before flickering again. This has happened since 50km of owning the car.
Both headlights and daytime running lights flicker on and off while driving, at night this has proven dangerous for myself and oncoming drivers being flashed by me constantly.bran new truck day 1
The led headlights flicker randomly while driving. This is very distracting to me and the vehicles in front of me. I just purchased the truck Friday (8/9) and noticed it on my way home from the dealership.
