1 Headlights problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2019

The headlights are too dim. The safety of my family is my main concern with this complaint. We live in an area where there are many animals that can and are out on the road. I have to be able to see better during the night time hours. The normal headlights feel as if they daylights are on. The high beams are even too dim. I feel like the high beams are the brightness that the normal lights should be.

2 Headlights problem

Headlights don't shine on the road very well. There no adjustment screws to correct.

3 Headlights problem

Failure Date: 11/30/2018

I just purchased a new 2018 Ford Edge. The low beam headlights are so dim with night driving, they are unsafe. Shows barely enough light ( no brighter than a street light). You can barely follow the center line. After 100 years in business, you would think this is something that I would not have to worry about when purchasing a new vehicle. I think the low beam lighting should be replaced what a brighter led lighting. I'm concerned with my safety and my family safety. I can not see how his was overlooked by the people in charge of making sure a car is safe to drive in all conditions.

4 Headlights problem

Failure Date: 05/25/2018

The low beam headlights are so weak that when the road is wet at night or when driving near ambient lighting such as street lights you can't see any markings on the road such as the centerline of the road. There is also exhaust fumes coming into the car when driving with the windows up or slightly rolled down and when the climate control system is in recirculating mode. These fumes make me dizzy and cause me to have blurry vision. I almost completely blacked out twice already and I owned this car for three weeks. I didn't know that Ford Edge had these problems and the salesman of course never mentioned them. These problems with the exhaust happen while driving slowly under 20 mph and at higher speeds on the highway when the recirculating mode is on with or without the air conditioning turned on. I have driven with the climate control totally off and still the fumes come inside the car. It's as if the body of the car is creating a vacuum that pulls the exhaust back into the car because I can have to climate system off and the windows open and exhaust gets sucked in. This car is s $36,000 death trap and I paid the full price so I'm screwed.
