| Component | EXTERIOR LIGHTING |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | When i 1st bought the car i upgraded the headlights to led low beams. This produced a nice light and the lighting increased significantly with a very sharp cutoff line. This was about 18 months ago. Now the low beams barely produce a blob of lighr and there is no cutoff line for the lights visible. My fog lights actually light up the road better than the low beams. This is very dangerous driving at night with very visible light actually hitting the road. I will need to replace these headlights very soon as i do allot of nighttime driving going to and from work in the winter months. If the roads are wet or damp the lighting does not even light up the lane marker lines this makes it very hard to drive esspecially on curvy roads. |
