Description of the problem | The headlight system in this vehicle at low and high beam casts a shadow about 100 feet in front. This causes a severe blind spot in front of the driver. In rainy weather it is doubly hard to see what issues face the driver. In fact i almost hit someone walking on the side of the road in rainy weather because they were not visible until they were inside the 100 feet. The lighting system must be replaced as the dealer has advised there is no adjustments they can make to overcome this issue. There have been many complaints to the dealer about it according to him. |
