NHTSA Complaint #11165971 — 2017 HONDA PILOT

VEHICLE LED HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO BRIGHT. ONCOMING TRAFFIC FLASHES HIGH BEAMS AT ME THINKING MY BRIGHTS ARE ON CREATING A HAZARD FOR MYSELF AND ONCOMING TRAFFIC. MANY TIMES I AM BLINDED BY THE BLINDING LIGHTS OF THEIR HIGH BEAMS BEAM LIGHTS BEING FLASHED AND HAVE GONE OFF THE ROAD DUE TO THE BLINDNESS. I HAVE CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED HELP. THE DEALER HAS ADJUSTED THE HEADLIGHTS WITH LITTLE EFFECT. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED RECENTLY. IT HAS LED HEADLAMPS, AND WAS A LATE MODEL 2017 RECENTLY PURCHASED AS A NEW VEHICLE. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE FREQUENT EVENTS OF ONCOMING VEHICLES FLASHING THEIR HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS IN RESPONSE TO THE PERCEPTION THAT MY HIGH BEAMS ARE ON. AS A RESULT OF THIS, I HAVE TO FLASH MY HIGH BEAMS IN RESPONSE TO LET THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC KNOW MY HIGH BEAMS ARE NOT ON. SOMETIMES OPPOSING TRAFFIC LEAVES THEIR HIGH BEAMS ON IN RETALIATION TO THE PERCEPTION MY HIGH BEAMS ARE ON CREATING A TEMPORARY CONDITION OF BLINDNESS ON MY PART AND HAS CAUSE ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD. I NEED YOUR HELP IN GETTING AMERICAN HONDA TO HELP RESOLVE THIS. THANKS YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
