| Description of the problem | The headlights are not safe to use to drive at night. High beams with fog lights are somewhat better but still not very bright. I have had to avoid driving at all if at all possible due to this safety issue. I understand that by 2017 forest river recognized the problem and upgraded the headlights but has not recalled or notified prior owners of the defect. *dt consumer contacted the manufacturer. Original headlights were replaced. *jb |
