Description of the problem | Headlights are inadequate on low beam without the use of the lower driving/fog lamps. Lower lamps needed to light sides of road. When switching to high beams, lamps are totally useless. Beam is focused way too high and narrows. Without lower fog lamps on with high beams, there is no illumination of the road sides or lower pavement from 5-30/50 feet out in front of vehicle. This is serious issue when driving on rural highways or county roads at night or on open interstates. Unable to see any wildlife or pedestrians on side or in front of vehicle when driving at night. |
