| Description of the problem | The headlights on this car are extremely dim and make driving at night, in the rain or snow very hazardous. I took the car to my dealership and they agree they are dim but said that they are in working order. They get this complaint frequently. So no fix or upgrade available. No my eyes are not the problem. Chrysler made standard very bright lights on all of the 2017 models. Not a coincidence. This is a dangerous situation. I drive on dark back roads in the hills frequently. It isn't just a nuisance but a truly dangerous situation. Chrysler needs to address this immediately. |
