File date	26/02/19
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Please require a recall and replacement of highlights on all newer cars. They are much too bright. I can't see a thing when these cars are driving toward me because the light is blinding. I have hit animals in the road and in 2 instances have almost struck people. Please require a recall and replacement of all these lights, and please require all states to test the beam direction annually, particularly on trucks and large suvs which tip upward in the front end when they are towing or carrying a load in the back of the vehicle. All of these lights are a hazard and i feel it is just a matter of time until i strike a bicyclist or pedestrian because i simply can't see beyond the vehicle with that much light in my eyes. (i have had my eyes examined for photosensitivity and that is not the problem.) please act on this.
