| Model | CR-V |

| Component | EXTERIOR LIGHTING |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | Engaging the honda cr-v high-beams on a dark road drastically diminishes visibility immediately in front of the vehicle and out about 25 feet. While the high-beams illuminate street signs and tree tops a great distance ahead of the vehicle, close-in lighting is dangerously lacking making for unsafe driving conditions. When the high-beams go on, the low-beams go off and there is almost no illumination close in. Other 2012 / 2013 cr-v owners have complained about this on various internet websites including www. Crvownersclub. Com and www. Edmunds. Com. There appears to be no fix from the dealer or honda at this time. *js |
