Description of the problem	2006 toyota avalon limited headlights have very poor illumination beyond 2 car lengths ahead of vehicle while driving at night. There is a very distinctive line where the headlights project ahead of the car and from there it's very dark ahead. Almost lost control of the car, at 60 mph trying to dodge a dear in the road that wasn't visible due to such a poor headlight illumination. It's a driving safety issue that should be investigated. Took the vehicle to toyota to get the headlights adjusted/aligned & they said they were properly adjusted at the factory & no problems noted! *jb
