Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | The headlights on the 2013 honda crv are grossly inadequate. There is very little light on the road when the lights are on high beam. The light is very narrow and the road edge is poorly illuminated to the point that it is difficult to see our driveway when returning home after dark. My wife is afraid to drive this vehicle after dark. We have never owned a car with such poor headlights. The honda dealership says there is no recall and there is nothing they can do. At my insistence, a brighter bulb was installed and that improved things only slightly. This is our third crv and our previous models (2004, 2006) did not have this problem. In my opinion this issue should be thoroughly investigated. |
