Attached is a picture of the condensation in the headlights issue. It just never dries up and has been like this for over 6 months straight. All this water blocks the headlights from working properly and shining correctly. It interferes with the safety of my headlights. I read several blogs of other Tahoe's in this age group of 2015, 2016 that are having this very frustrating issue. I believe it should be a recall as there's no way I should be having to replace headlights for $750 each this soon. It is not safe to drive like this.

Interior lights on dashboard turn off then they flicker/pulsate, headlights and exterior break lights flicker/pulsate constantly. It's more noticeable at night while in motion. Other drivers think I'm flashing my lights at them. Checked all connections of the battery and also the alternator by mechanic and no problem was found..

My neighbors' Chevrolet Tahoe has reverse lights that stay on after the doors are locked and the driver is walking away from the car. I have seen young and high-school age children playing behind the car while the reverse lights are lit which caused me to shout and run. If the children, or adults for that matter, can take those reverse lights for granted then there's a potential they can be killed by another car were those lights only light up when they're in reverse. I believe all GM vehicles work this way.

GM products now have an unsafe condition when unlocking the doors. The vehicles turn on the reverse lights when the doors are unlocked, leading other drivers to believe that the car is backing up. This causes other drivers in parking lots to stop when they should not thinking that the car is about to back up, and will ultimately cause drivers to ignore GM product reverse lights as they are not used solely for backing up.

As I was driving the error light came on stating there was a camera malfunction. This is a safety camera/system on the front of the truck, which controls the stability control, speed, braking system, electronic bind spot detection, etc.
