Consumer Description

The low beam headlights are so dim they cause me to practically stop when faced with an oncoming car because I am not able to see. I am not able to drive this vehicle at night because of this. I have had the bulbs replaced but there is no improvement. From all I have read online it is a defective reflector. Please do something about this. It is an extreme safety issue to drive a car without headlights or to be blinding oncomers with high beams. Thank you.
