Description of the problem	Deer ran into me. My headlights on my ram are so inferior that i couldn't see the deer. I don't think he could see me either. The headlights on the rams are so poor i have started looking on websites to see if others are having the same problems. I have found hundreds of other ram owners with the same complaint. We all have commented how we can drive with our brights on and never get flashed back. Apparently chrysler has corrected the problem on the 2013 model. (finally). Chrysler needs to recall the affected rams and fix the headlights before people are injured and killed, or should i say before more are injured and killed.
