GMC Canyon headlights may flicker while driving

NHTSA campaign 24V673000 · Reported 2024-09-12 · General Motors, LLC

medium How serious is it? About this label

Moderately serious — poor visibility raises the chance of a crash, but the notice does not tell owners to stop driving, so you can keep driving while you arrange the free repair.

What's wrong, in plain English

Some 2024 GMC Canyon trucks have headlights that flicker, both while you're driving and while the truck is parked. A part inside the headlight assembly is at fault. Flickering headlights make it harder to see the road ahead at night or in bad weather, and they don't meet the federal rules for vehicle lighting. Your dealer will replace the faulty module inside the headlight so the lights stay steady and bright again.

What you should do

1. Enter your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your truck is included. 2. Call your GMC dealer, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782 (GM recall number N242468880), to book an appointment. 3. Have the headlight module replaced — the repair is free.
