GM is Recalling C8 Corvettes and Other Vehicles Over a Lighting Issue

C8 Corvettes from 2020-2024 sold in Canada are among the hundreds of thousands of vehicles affected by a recall for a lighting control software issue.

GM says a possible 273,255 vehicles across five brands, including the Corvettes, will need to be inspected to make sure their headlamps are working properly.

GM says in some instances the lower beam headlamps on some Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC, and BrightDrop vehicles don’t illuminate as it becomes dark outside if the multi-function switch is in the “Off” or “Parking Lamp” position. The condition can also cause daytime running lamps to go off while the vehicle is moving, which is against Canadian regulations.

Officials warn that if the headlamps fail to illuminate properly, visibility could be reduced and possibly lead to a higher risk of crash or serious injury.

Certified GM technicians are being told to inspected the affected vehicles and update the body control module (BCM) software, if necessary.

GM will notify owners of affected vehicles by mail, instructing them to set up an appointment with a GM dealer.
