This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2017 GMC Acadia. While driving at night, the low beam headlamps failed to adequately provide illumination for safe driving. The dealer diagnosed that the headlamps operated as intended. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 2,200.
Low beam headlight performance inadequate. Vertical aim is ok but luminous lux is low, and lateral coverage during low speed turning is insufficient. If this vehicle meets the FMVSS standard for lighting, consider raising the minimum standards. Lighting is a safety issue NHTSA now tests for. Unless the customer does a test drive at night (can be impossible during the summer), there is no way to learn of a deficiency before purchasing.
The 2017 GMC Acadia does not have any turn signal indicators that are visible on the side of the vehicle. The turn indicator is embedded in the headlight and is not visible to vehicles along side or perpendicular to the Acadia.
