Component | EXTERIOR LIGHTING |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | The lighting is so poor on rural roads that you must drive with the brights on. The low beams only work for the first 15 feet or so and then when going down a slight decline the far distance or "night horizon" just disappears like a curtain dropped down from the top of the windshield. You literally lose sight of the road. Same situation when turning. Its really scary. I spoke with the service manager and he said he drove one home and almost ran off the road. He agrees with my problem. I'm told there is no fix. If this is not addressed i guarantee there will be accidents with this car. I'm told if there are enough complaints something will be done by your organization. Help--i don't want to die for something like this. |
