Maintaining your headlights is an easy and inexpensive step that ensures your vehicle is safe on the road. When it’s time for new headlights, your Chevy dealership can install them. But sometimes headlights decline gradually, making it difficult to know when to replace them. Here’s how to tell when your vehicle is due for replacement headlights.

Does Your Chevy Need New Headlights?

Your Headlights Are Suddenly Dimmer

It’s normal for your vehicle’s lights to dim over time. But if you notice a sudden decline in the brightness of your lights, or if it becomes difficult to see far in front of your vehicle, it’s probably time to replace your headlights.

If your lights appear foggy or yellowish, that’s another sign that it’s time to schedule a headlight service at our dealership. Foggy, yellowish lights may indicate that you need a new set of headlights. They also may indicate that the lenses covering your headlamps need to be cleaned. Our service department can diagnose the issue and perform the appropriate service.  

Your Headlights Are Blinking

Headlights that are blinking on and off should be evaluated by one of our service technicians. Headlights that are blinking don’t necessarily need to be replaced. Sometimes a poor electrical connection or some other issue can create blinking.

What To Expect When Scheduling Headlight Service at Your Chevy Dealership

Long-Lasting Replacements

Headlights don’t need to be replaced frequently, so once you’ve had new lights installed at our dealership, you should be in good shape for a while. Halogen headlight bulbs often last for up to 1,000 hours, and LED headlight bulbs can last up to 50,000 hours. Regardless of which type of bulb is on your Chevy, you’ll get hours on the road before needing to replace your lights.

Comprehensive Headlight Service

Our service department can replace your headlights, but we can also help with a host of related headlight issues, like wiring issues or replacing your dimmer switch. We can also align headlights that have been knocked off kilter on the road or fix damage to the plastic lenses that protect your headlamps. When your vehicle is in our service department, it will be in the hands of a factory-trained technician who knows your make and model through and through.

Fast, Friendly Service

Repairing or replacing the headlights on your Chevy is a fast, easy, and convenient service. Headlight repair or replacement is nothing to worry about. The friendly professionals in our service department will have you back on the road in no time.

If you’re having trouble navigating darkened roads, it may be time to have the headlights on your Chevy checked out. The next time you’re scheduling headlight service, call Jackson Chevrolet GMC.
