Latest Corvette lighting complaints
Low beam headlights stop working while driving.
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.
The vehicle dic display goes blank periodically. The analog gauges work at all times. When the display is blank, and while driving, the analogs will go full scale and all warning lights will illuminate for a few seconds. Then the analog gauges return to normal operation. While driving for a period of about 30 minutes or more, the display becomes operative, and all steering wheel commands function. The display and gauges operate normally for days. Then after sitting in the garage when I open the left door, days...

later, the display does not come on. And repeats the cycle. I have informed gm and have an open case. However, they have no immediate solution and I was told that there are no replacement instrument clusters available at this time. I was also told that there are a number of owners across the country that are experiencing similar issues with their dic's. A gm rep at the action center stated that all owners with this problem are waiting for replacement parts. They could give no expectation as to when the parts will be available. Gm knows there is a problem with the 2014 corvette instrument clusters.. I am now on a list of owners waiting for the word on when the clusters will become available. My car is not even 3 yrs old and gm doesn't have the part to fix it anywhere in the gm system? Mileage 813.0 I thought the vehicle needed a software update. I brought it to the local chevy dealer and they told me they attempted to update the software 3 x and each time it failed. They stated that they did not know what the problem was and could not fix the problem. When they returned my car, all gauges and displays were inoperative, including the infotainment system. I had an independent tech reprogram the system, and all returned to normal. However, the dic display is still intermittent. The display goes out only while it is sitting with power off.Does not go out when driving. *Tr
My car has had a problem with the instrument panel lighting improper (intensity) and speed control (erratic control) both operated improperly. I finally found a dealer that agreed there was a problem, the problem was the interface between the instrument panel and several computers in the car. In an attempt to reprogram the computers it was found the panel was so defective the computers could not be programed. It turns out the problem is so pervasive that there are no repair parts available anywhere to fix my...

car. It was been awaiting a part now for over 6 weeks with no idea when one will be available. So I am without the car which is inoperable until repairs are completed. It seems that if this problem so large that no parts are available nor can it be determined when they will be available there must be a significant problem you should be aware of. I have talked to chevrolet as far up the line as the customer service office with no answer available. This took 2 years of effort to get chevrolet to look at the car even though there were maintenance advisories out about the issue.
Hid lights have gone out completely without notice or warning. Only the lower lights are operational. Regular lights are out and high beam lights are out. This is a safety concern and the car malfunctioned without warning. This appears to be a common problem with the new model. I have a 2005 and have only had to replace one light one time and have nearly 200k miles. The service center stated they've never replaced the hid lights on a corvette since employed with the company and thought since both went out at...

the same time there may be other issues. Online research demonstrates this is not an isolated incident. The car provided no warnings that the lights were going to go out or that they were out.
The cars hud is not readable when driving into the sun.

The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the modem and wiring needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vin was unknown. The approximate failure mileage was 1,867. Updated 04/19/16*lj *cn
Both the headlamps go out at the same time while driving. All the other lights seem to be working fine. Car left in the garage overnight and the headlamps functionality returned. This happened two days in a row (11june2014, 12june2014). Please look into this safety issue and investigate. Thanks! *Tr
In damp weather, the drivers side headlight fogged over from condensation inside lens and the drivers side low beam headlight was observed to be not working. Passenger side headlight had no condensation and working low beam. *Tr both high beams were then turned on and observed to be working. Conditions dried later in the day and headlights were observed to be working. Driver side headlamp condensation dried in 24 hours. Over the prior six months, condensation has been occasionally observed inside the...

drivers side headlamp but the low beam had not previously failed to light. Chevrolet dealer ( robert's chevrolet in hicksville ny ) said they would not accept the car for service unless this intermittent problem was present at check-in even though we have photographic documentation.
Auto low beams do not work at night intermittently. Green headlight on indicator is lit. The switch will not turn them on either. High beams work and fog lights work. Happened a few times, dealer says they can't find any trouble codes or problems. They said brig it back while it is happening. Turning all lights off gives a warning "headlights suggested" indicating the sensor is working. I start the car in a dark garage and lights work. I made a painter's tape cover to cover the light sensor so if I experience the problem in day time, I can drive it to the dealer making the car think it's still dark. $65,000 For a car with intermittent headlight? *Tr
