| Description of the problem | The headlights on dim will give the oncoming car the " brights effect" on rough up and down roads. Resulting in the oncoming car giving me the "brights flash" or just leaving their vehicle 'brights' on permanently. This is very blinding and dangerous. Seems there is a fine line of being dim or bright on these types of headlights. I have had them inspected by the dealer and told they are ok. There are many other complaints on the internet. This is night time driving. |
