The low beam headlamps remain out of service. (note: Low beam bulbs were replaced approximately two months ago).

Low beam headlights go out, sometimes they will not come back on until car ignition is turned off and back on sometimes they don't come back on at all, very dangerous, GM has a recall but they say my VIN number is not covered, I have talked to local dealer as well as General Motors concerning this issue with no positive response. It appears this issue will be just like the key switch issue, people will have to die before anything is done.
