UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

Rear view camera system display (360 surround) was completely inoperative. Rear view camera display did not appear on IP display when vehicle was shifted into reverse, nor did it appear when the "camera" app was selected from the center display. No warning messages present; OnStar remote code read indicated no codes. Danger is to others behind the vehicle, particularly children in blind spot. Problem persisted over several trips until I disconnected and reconnected the vehicle's 12 volt battery, and now everything is working correctly. Did not take vehicle to dealer now that everything is working; suspect software issue cleared by "vehicle reboot"

Defect Description:

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Potential Consequences:

Low beam headlights have very poor throw which degrades while driving. After driving the vehicle for 30 minutes, both left and right headlights point downward and do not throw light down the road. Cutoff is steep, with light only going about one car length. The fault is variable and somewhat random, with sometimes just one headlight drooping. The car must be driven for this to happen - does not occur when sitting flat or idle. The amount of droop varies also (confirmed by placing various pieces of tape on garage wall, and checking headlight position before and after a trip). Although the magnitude of droop is variable, nearly any trip will cause at least some amount of misalignment. When the fault is severe, even the high beams do not function well - just illuminating a very bright spot directly in front of the vehicle - and not down the road. Vehicle has electronic motorized leveling system for the headlights. The headlights go through some sort of automatic adjustment process when the vehicle is turned on. When the fault has occurred, turning the vehicle off and then on temporarily corrects the issue. Of course, this is not possible to do while driving. Driving at night in this vehicle is hazardous with this behavior. Numerous other Debut Edition and 2023 model year owners are experiencing this issue - not an isolated occurrence.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Potential Consequences:

When the vehicle first starts, the headlights go through some sort of leveling routine and the light spread seems to illuminate a reasonable distance ahead of the vehicle. However, over as short as a few minutes of driving, the headlight seems to droop significantly and can result in only a very short section of road being illuminated ahead of the vehicle. This makes it very dangerous to drive at night as not enough of the road is illuminated ahead of the vehicle. The headlight throw pattern is not always uniform and there may appear to be something like a notch in the light pattern. This does not seem related to adaptive forward lighting as I do not see an active change in the light pattern based on driving.

Low beam headlights work appropriately for 5 or so minutes before "drooping" or "sagging" so that they only illuminate one car length or so in front of the vehicle. Upon shutting off and restarting the vehicle, the lights return to correct illumination. However, they somehow droop again and within 5-10 minutes, it is not safe to drive the vehicle on low-beam headlights. It is the equivalent of having only fog lights on.
