Headlights problems of the 2012 Dodge Ram 2500

Two problems related to headlights have been reported for the 2012 Dodge Ram 2500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Headlights problem

Failure Date: 12/03/2012

The headlights are not adequate to see safely at night. The lights do not shine forward of the vehicle enough to be able to see what is ahead at night, such as curves in the road. Also, the lights do not project to the side of the vehicle enough to see when making a hard turn to the right or left. They do not provide any light at all when turning. I sometimes have to roll down the window and stick my head out to scan for obstacles as best as I can on dimly lit roadways. I can use my high beam lights in traffic and never get flashed by other drivers due to my lights blinding them.

2 Headlights problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2012

The headlights on this model Dodge ram (2500 slt mega cab) do not provide adequate illumination at night. My headlights are adjusted properly for alignment by the dealer but the bulbs just do not provide enough light ahead or to the side of this vehicle. The dealer can only "check the connectors for proper installation" under warranty. I have not been able to get a response from Chrysler.
