Defect Involved

General Motors has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 1995 {division} model vehicles equipped with twilight sentinel. Some of these vehicles were assembled with lighting control modules which may experience excessive current leakage due to damaged surface mounting capacitors. This condition could result in a loss of head lamps and park lamps. Sudden loss of head lamp lighting could reduce drive visibility, which could result in a vehicle crash without prior warning.

In addition, the potential also exists that the head lamps can not be turned OFF or that they could turn ON while the vehicle is parked. Both of these conditions would result in loss of battery state of charge and the inability to restart the vehicle.

To prevent the possibility of these conditions from occurring, retailers are to replace the lamp control module on involved vehicles.
