Issue ID	731313
Internal NHTSA #	10277190
Manufacurer	GENERAL MOTORS CORP.
Brand	CADILLAC
Model	ESCALADE
Model Year	2009
File date	01/01/09
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Headlight installed height on taller vehicles such as category 1 and 2 trucks (commonly called suv, crossover, van, pickup truck, etc.) is of such a design that it commonly (perhaps unavoidably) ends up blinding drivers in passenger cars at lower heights by directing the 'hot spot' of headlight low beams directly into the eyes of passenger car drivers. In addition, bumper height on these same vehicles is not designed to meet bumpers on other vehicles, resulting in higher than necessary injury and fatality rates. Please have someone contact me to discuss ways to develop safer vehicle designs and regulations.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
