Description of the problem	I purchased a hyundai tucson in sepember of 2016 new. I noticed right away that i could not see very well at night. The headlights are aimed at the ground 2-3 car lengths in front of the bumper. With the high beams on you can see the definite line between light and dark approx 4-5 car lengths in front of the bumper. When cars are approaching on an undivided road, the visibility is reduced even more from the glare of the oncoming lights. I have had 2 close calls where i almost hit a pedestrian walking on the edge of the road with dark clothes on. I have taken the vehicle to autofair hyundai in manchester, nh on two occasions to have the headlights adjusted to correct the problem. I quote the response,"customer would like us to adjust the headlights, states he can not see at night, can see if we can adjust them, misc per state law we cannot adjust the headlights above where they are currently. 6686 isp" the insurance institute for highway safety's evaluations says "manufacturers aren't paying enough attention to the actual on-road performance of the basic equipment,we're optimistic that improvements will come quickly now that we've given automakers something to strive for." for 2017, vehicles will need good or acceptable headlights in order to qualify for the institute's highest award, top safety pick+. That's real nice of them. What happens to my 2016 model? I want my vehicle recalled and repaired. Why should i have to wait and be forced to buy a 2017 model in order to have a safe car at night?
