Component
EXTERIOR LIGHTING:LIGHTING CONTROL MODULE:SOFTWARE
Manufacturer
General Motors, LLC
What Happened
The lighting control module is a computer that helps control your vehicle's exterior lights. In your CT4, CT5, Envision, Escalade, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, Sierra, Yukon, or Yukon XL, there's a software issue that might be causing your daytime running lights (DRLs) to stay on even when your headlights are turned on.
Risk if Unfixed
If your DRLs don't turn off when your headlights are on, it could cause a glare that reduces visibility, making it harder for other drivers to see you, and increasing the risk of a collision.
Free Fix
Your authorized dealer will update the software in your vehicle's body control module for free. You can also get the update over-the-air, and you'll be notified when the work is complete. Just look out for the recall notice in the mail and schedule the update as soon as you can.
