Description of the problem | My wife has a 2013 honda crv and is having a problem with the headlights. When she goes from low to high beams you loose most of the foreground illumination. On a dark road, when you need as much light as possible, this creates a very scary effect. There is without question a safety flaw with the headlight system. I brought the car back to the dealer but they couldn't help. I had them document on the slip that customer was not satisfied with headlight system. In my opinion, it's only a matter of time before someone is killed because of this problem. I called honda corporate last week and was provided with a case number and someone is supposed to call me back. With all the chatter on the internet regarding this issue, i'm sure they are aware of the problem. Hopefully, they will indicate exactly when this dangerous flaw in the 2013 honda crv will be properly corrected. As of today, honda has not responded. |
