Anyone else have problems with RS Lights - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

@500 miles I had to have my passenger side headlight replaced (RS Package so it has the projectors), the headlight just completely stopped working.

Now at 2300 miles the passenger side headlight again stopped working, but this time the headlight is filling with condensation. Its the actual headlight assembly that stopped working, not a bulb problem as I have 2 spares.

So wonderful, of course they are going to need to keep the car over night, then most likely a few days to get the headlight in...gah

i hate when they have to do any work on these cars, they take the car in for a whole day and dont even start on the work. and then they will call you back in like a week later to fix your stuff.

Hope that doesn't happen with mine :( **(as a side note)** Have yall gotten the DRL harness? I threw some LED's in the fog lights and it looks 100% better at night

That sucks man, i had the dealer order me a new halo last week because my passenger side halo is a completely different color than the drivers side. One side is white and the other is like light greenish.

I haven't had any problems at all

MillerTime....my harness is IN THE MAIL.....and I will replace the DRL's in the near future.

no problems here either. I would have to imagine that there's an issue with your wire connections. The conductors may be exposed and are corroding. When they redid it the first time they may have just made a similar mistake.

Bring it in and let them diagnose. It is just a headlight. Let them order the parts and being it back for the repair.

What are you going to do?

I had my passenger headlight go out a couple of months ago and they had to change the whole assembly out. Now my driver side headlight is out. Here we go again!! I wonder if there is some kind of issue with the RS and they need to do a recall!!

This is the first I've heard of any problems with them. Probably a random bad egg from whoever Chevy gets them from.
