NHTSA Complaint #10744522 — 2014 FORD EXPLORER

THE FIRST TIME I TOOK MY NEW VEHICLE OUT AT NIGHT I STRUGGLED SEEING THE ROAD EVEN WITH THE FOG LIGHTS ON. WHEN YOU LOOK OUT OVER THE HOOD THERE IS A BLACK LINE AT HOOD HEIGHT AND THE LIGHT APPEARS ABOVE THE BLACK LINE. SO THERE IS NOT MUCH LIGHT HITTING THE ROAD. WHEN MAKING A TURN THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT FOLLOW THE ROAD ON THE TURN AS THEY APPEAR OFF IN THE DISTANCE AND NOT DOWN ON THE ROAD. YOU VIRTUALLY CANNOT SEE IN RURAL AREAS WHEN MAKING A TURN. EVEN HIGH BEAMS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD VERY WELL. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE HAS AN ACCIDENT AND KILLS THEMSELVES.
