Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING AFTER DARK IT LOOKS LIKE A SHADE GOT PULLED DOWN OVER 1/2 OF THE WINDSHIELD PLUS ANOTHER BLACK SPOT UNDER THAT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE HAD MANY COMPLAINTS. I HAD THEM ADJUST THE HEAdlamps up a little bit but now everyone is blinking brites at me and even pulling off the road the next thing will be a road rage driver. it is impossible to drive after dark without the brites on you can not see road signs because the headlamps aim down if you go down a hill all you see is a few feet ahead it is definately a severe safety concern toyota dealer said it was the way the headlight is designed and if they get enough complaints they might do something but right now my new car i bought is sitting in my garage because it is not d safe to drive except during the day i have had other people in the car and they all say the same thing (who pulled the shade down) its that bad
