| Description of the problem | 2009 cr-v high beams - little in-close lighting 2009 cr-v high beams offers very little in-close/fill lighting. High beams offer "reach" but lighting is weak and diffused. High beam light beam is elevated from the ground giving very little in-close illumination. Unlike low beams, low beam filaments turn off when high beams are turned on so very little in-close, near ground lighting is offered. This is a safety problem maneuvering tight turns and poorly lit highway cloverleaf exits since there is very little in-close lighting when the high beams are on. Car brought to honda service and reported to honda customer service. They say there is no problem. |
