Hey everyone ,

My wife and I just picked up a 21 Burb Premiere last weekend that is just out of warranty. She has been driving it but last night I noticed while driving that the left headlamp was pointed way too far down. When I got home I tried to see if I could adjust it but it does not adjust any higher. I can see the cog mechanism turning when I turn the screw but nothing's happening with the light.

I read on some older Silverado forms last night that the adjustment mechanism may be fairly easy to remove and inspect and possibly get realigned, but I haven't found anything for the late model Burbs. I won't have an opportunity to look at this until this weekend, but does anyone know if that's possible on this model or will I be stuck replacing the headlamp assembly?
I'm still scratching my head at how a 2-year-old vehicle can already have a headlamp out of adjustment and possibly broken. But then again I've found a couple of minor issues that I really don't understand based on vehicle age either.

Just to be clear, you are turning the philip's screw located towards the back of the top of the headlamp housing?
Did you get a clean CarFax report?

I was thinking about studying the Carfax report or doing the vin check VIN decoder in the United States by EpicVin | Decode and Lookup your VIN number free

I had the same question. But sometimes these issues really don't depend on the age of the vehicle
