Consumer Description

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS MODEL DODGE RAM (2500 SLT MEGA CAB) DO NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION AT NIGHT. MY HEADLIGHTS ARE ADJUSTED PROPERLY FOR ALIGNMENT BY THE DEALER BUT THE BULBS JUST DO NOT PROVIDE ENOUGH LIGHT AHEAD OR TO THE SIDE OF THIS VEHICLE. THE DEALER CAN ONLY "CHECK THE CONNECTORS FOR PROPER INSTALLATION" UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET A RESPONSE FROM CHRYSLER. *TR
