| Description of the problem | The headlights do not cover enough visibility while moving forward down road. There is a noticeable line where the headlights shine. They beam very low to the road surface. We brought to dealer because of concern the response was that that is the way they are. No resolve. Difficult to see driving in dark unless high beams are on. High beams are very nice. The line of darkness to lighted road is not prevalent. Other drivers often shine brights on me when i have my lights on regular low beam. |
