On July 20 I filed a report with the Iowa attorney general. I next received a letter dated July 27 from the Iowa attorney general that all my information had been sent to the NHTSA. Today I checked with the NHTSA to get an update on what is happening. They said that they do not have any record on my problem. I contacted the Iowa attorney general office and they assured me that everything was forwarded on July 27 to the NHTSA. I am wanting to know what the latest status is and current information.

In early December 2014, the low-beam headlights stopped working permanently. Replacing the hdm module does no rectify the situation and the fuses and lamps are in good working condition. I have been driving 7 months with high-beams only, which endangers other drivers and puts me at risk of head-on collision. Other people have indicated their cars have burned because of this situation. I first noticed GM's public acknowledgment of the defect in December, but nearly 7 months later, they have neither notified me nor announced a way to fix the problem. My dealership has no remedy to offer. In one week my state inspection expires. After that I will not be able to drive the car or sell it.
