Description of the problem	I purchased my car in july of 2012 and never drove it at night until about a month later. I was shocked to see that when you are driving in an unlighted area there is a very dark shadow that goes across the entire top half of the windshield which inhibits your view greatly. I have complained to the dealership twice about this and they tell me there is nothing they can do. I told them that i can barely see beyond 10 feet of the road unless i have my high beams on and was concerned of having an accident from this. Well i did have an accident the other night and hopefully someone will listen to me now. Someone had left a car illegally parked on an on ramp and when i was driving home the other night i never saw the car parked there do to the poor lighting from my car and as i was trying to merge into the travel lane i slammed into the parked car. Fortunately i was not injured however the next person may not be as fortunate and i cannot ignore this. They have to do something about their headlights on the new toyota camry that causes the windshield to have a dark shadow across the top half at night. Both my husband and close friend have seen what happens to the windshield at night and they agreed it greatly inhibits your view of the road.
