Complaint Summary
EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Owner Narrative
HEADLIGHT PERFORMANCE IS VERY POOR WITH WEAK YELLOW BEAM BOTH ON LOW AND HIGH BEAMS. DIFFICULTY SEEING DURING NIGHT DRIVING, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS IN DARK AREAS, IS VERY HAZARDOUS, EVEN WORSE DURING RAIN. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND THAT OF MY FAMILY WHILE DRIVING THIS TRUCK AT NIGHT. THE PROJECTOR-STYLE HEADLAMPS ON THE VEHICLE WERE DIM WITH A YELLOW COLOR AND PROVIDED INADEQUATE FRONT AND SIDE ILLUMINATION. THE HEADLIGHT AIM WAS RAISED, WHICH RESULTED IN LITTLE IMPROVEMENT.
