| Description of the problem | The headlights are very dim. Bulbs have been replaced and no change in lighting. At night the lights are so dim that you cannot see if anything is in the street ahead. I have to wait until i pull behind someone to see if the lights are still on. This is very dangerous and i have read many complaints of this same problem. I was told that the battery was low. Replaced the battery and no change in the lighting. Something needs to be done about this. I have not had an accident but something is bound to happen to someone sooner or later due to this problem. I don't feel someone should be injured or killed before something is done about the problem. |
