1 Fog Light Switch problem

Failure Date: 06/28/2019

The low beam headlights do not put out enough lighting upon the road to safely navigate at night. I have replaced the bulbs, but that didn't help any. I have also installed a set of aftermarket fog lights which helps a little bit, but not so much when it is raining or when encountering glaring lights from oncoming traffic. I have read that if you buy and replace the entire lens assembly that will fix the issue of water leaks into the assembly, but mine don't look like there has been any moisture inside. The average costs of that entire part is over $300 each. The problem seems to be that the round lens within the assembly appears to be a magnifying-type lens that resembles the type of privacy glass commonly used for shower doors and windows. I drive with the high beams on until challenged by oncoming traffic, but then when I respond accordingly I must come almost to a complete stop or risk leaving the road altogether.

2 Fog Light Switch problem

Failure Date: 03/05/2018

Headlight low beams are so dim it is totally dangerous to drive at night. No fix available. I added new led low beams and fog light and still cannot see to drive at night. The complaint is rapid on the internet for the same issues. No recalls or problem solutions.
