Consumer Description

I OWN A 2015 GMC SIERRA. I BELIEVE THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM. A FEW DAYS AFTER PURCHASING MY TRUCK NEW OFF THE LOT I MISSED TURNING ON MY STREET (THAT I HAVE LIVED ON FOR 3 YEARS) BECAUSE I WAS NOT ABLE TO SEE THE SIGN OR THE ROAD PROPERLY. I ENDED UP IN MY NEIGHBOR'S DITCH. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO DAMAGE, BUT I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT ON FAMILIAR ROADS DUE TO THE INSUFFICIENT AMOUNT LIGHT THE HEADLIGHTS PRODUCE. THIS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AFTER DARK ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD WITH 35 MPH SPEED LIMITS. THERE WAS NOT ANY ADDITIONAL STREET LIGHTING AROUND TO PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL LIGHTING.
