Consumer Description

THE LIGHTING SYSTEM (HEADLIGHTS) ON MY 2014 RAM TRUCK ARE DANGEROUS TO USE AT NIGHT. THEY ARE VERY DIM AND PRODUCE SUB-STANDARD LIGHTING FOR SAFE DRIVING. I AM FORCED TO USE HIGH BEAMS DURING NIGHT DRIVING. THIS IS NOTABLY NOT SAFE FOR ONCOMING DRIVERS, BUT IT IS THE ONLY OPTION I HAVE. AFTER A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH, THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH MANY CHRYSLER, RAM AND JEEP PRODUCTS. *TR
