What Happened
The headlamp driver module in your vehicle controls the headlights and daytime running lights. In your 2006-2009 model, this module can overheat and fail, preventing your headlights from working.
Risk if Unfixed
If your headlights don't turn on, you'll have a harder time seeing the road and other vehicles, which increases the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will replace the faulty headlamp driver module with a new one, completely free of charge. Just wait for the recall notice and schedule the repair at your convenience.

Original — What Happened
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix, 2006-2009 Buick LaCrosse, 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT, GMC Envoy XL, 2006-2008 Isuzu Ascender, and Saab 9-7x vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the headlamp driver module (HDM) may overheat and fail, causing the headlamps and daytime running lights to not illuminate.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
Headlamps that do not illuminate reduce the driver's ability to see the roadway and reduce the vehicle's visibility to oncoming vehicles, both of which increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
Original — Remedy
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the HDM, free of charge. The recall began on May 17, 2016. Owners may contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300 or Pontiac customer service at 1-800-762-2737. GM's number for this recall is 14291.
