Description of the problem | While operating the 2015 srx4 last night on an interstate then two lane state road in a light rain, the low beam headlights barely illuminated the roadway. The brights were fine but when meeting oncoming traffic and switching to low beam, it was if the lights were not working at all. There were several times that i could not even see the painted lines on the side of the road. It was extremely dangerous and unsettling. Today i find online that there are numerous complaints about the low beams being unacceptable and dangerous. I concur. The poor quality of lighting will end up causing an accident or getting someone killed. This appears to be a known problem to cadillac and gm. |
