General Motors of Canada is recalling 31,661 vehicles because the headlamp driver module (HDM) may not operate properly in high underhood temperatures, in which case the low-beam headlamps and daytime running lamps could fail to illuminate. 
Loss of daytime running lamps and low-beam headlamps could reduce the driver's vision and make the vehicle less visible to other motorists, which could result in a crash.

While a correction has yet to be determined, you should note that this condition does not affect the high-beam headlamps, marker lamps, turn signals, or fog lamps. 

Affected models include:

  • 2006-2009 Buick Allure;
  • 2006-2007 Buick Rainier;
  • 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer and Trailblazer EXT;
  • 2006 GMC Envoy and Envoy XL;
  • 2006-2008 Saab 9-7X.
