| Description of the problem | The low beam headlights provide very little illumination which makes the car unusable at night. I did report to my dealer who suggested i purchase a new set on the internet and they would install them. I did that and thosre worked well for less than a year. The 2013 needs to be recalled tol replace the headlights with a newlly designed version. |
