| Description of the problem | My 1006 hyundai azera has a dark shadow covering part of the left headlamp. In night driving, this results in limited vision on the left side of the road. Dealer told me there's a black dot on the left headlamp which is supposed to reduce glare of my headlights for oncoming vehicles. However, this limited vision may actually result in a collision with a pedestrian or vehicle. Dealer told me headlamps are set to spec and cannot be adjusted. It seems to me, that my safety should supersede the comfort of oncoming vehicles. *jb |
