2021 Camaro 3LT RS headlights not available

I own a 2021 Camaro 3LT RS. The driver-side headlight is gone for more than 2 months now. The dealer and Chevrolet say that they don't have any ETA available on when the headlight will be available. Any leads on where can I get a headlight that won't void my warranty or damage any other part?

Is it covered under warranty?

I would imagine so. If they're backordered, it doesn't really matter if it is or isn't though.

Should they be offering me a buyback or a refund or an exchange if they are not able to get me a headlamp? This has already been 2 months now.

Looks like there are some used ones on eBay as well. This is one of my biggest concerns is that one of my vehicles breaks down and the parts needed are not available. I have a friend that has an Acura MDX. Got in an accident... He's been waiting 5 months for the parts and Acura can't get them. His insurance would only cover a renal for 1 month. So now he had to buy a used car to get him by. Of course all while he's making payments to Acura for his new MDX.

Plug part number into goggle, check dealers that pop up with price. You may get lucky and find one IN STOCK. Check ebay too and as other mentioned, car-parts.com. ASK them to verify part number - there is white sticker tag on the headlight.



Took me over 4 months to get one.

No. I would definitely complain to GM though. Keep in mind, this isn't the dealership's fault, it's all on GM and their supply chain issues. You might get some sort of good will from GM if you let them know how disappointed you are since they can't get a part that is legally required for you to drive your car.

Isn't it the same as any SS headlight back to 2019?

That should open up some options.....

His insurance meaning his fault?

Because if it was the other party's fault you better believe they will pay for my rental until my car is fixed.

There were some delays recently with some bodywork on another vehicle and the other guy's insurance had me in a sweet black Supercharged Q7 for like 2 months.
