Headlights Problems of Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

I just bought a Hyundai sonata limited and drove it home. On low beam the headlights project 2 black notches or dark areas that do not illuminate the road under them. This is annoying and dangerous because the headlights do not evenly illuminate the road safely so I can see well. Had I known about this defect I would not have purchased the car. This is now widely reported and I am going to contact consumer reports about this. Does Hyundai have a fix for this or at least an intelligent explanation? the dark line and notches, basically block out vision, when turning corners and up and down hills, a safety issue. Just get used to a dark line blocking vision half way down the windshield, and two dark notches in the view in front of the car??.

Just saw on tv consumer reports about poor night vision with SUV headlights and was reminded of a problem I have that may affect other vehicles headlights. I have a 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. I was driving home at night this last winter during a very heavy wet snowstorm when I noticed my headlights seem to be getting dimmer and dimmer. At first I thought the snow storm was just getting worse but it was way too unsafe to stop and check them so I just drove slower and slower. When I got home in my garage, I noticed than there was at least a couple of inches of snow built up over my headlights severely limiting how much light was passing through them. I also noticed that the headlights were also burning way to cool to melt off the snow as our other vehicles had. So are most of the newer headlights burning cooler or is this just a freak problem I had?.

On 19 Jul 2013, an insured driver on my auto policy was driving in north dakota and hit a deer. The right fender, right headlight, hood and bumper were damaged. She called me & I told her if it was safe to drive, to continue driving. She kept driving and then the overheating light came on. She pulled the car over in less than a minute. She called me again & I told her to call Hyundai roadside assistance. The vehicle was towed to abra in bismarck, nd. They repaired the vehicle. The cost was $9760. 00. They were in the process of moving it from the repair shop to the paint shop, which was right next door. They turned on the engine & as it was sitting there, it started spewing radiator fluid. They turned it off and took the car to Hyundai of bismarck. They determined that the heads were warped and the engine was destroyed. After the cost of the new engine was added to the cost of repairs, the car was totaled. I don't think that if a person pulls over within a minute of the overheating light coming on. That it will warp the heads. The whole reason for the light is to warn the driver. . I believe that either the motor was defective or the computer within the vehicle was defective & didn't come on early enough before there was damage to the heads & was not caused by the person diriving. This insurance claim went too fast and usaa signed off and totaled the vehicle just on numbers, not on any inverstigation of the reason why the heads were warped and destroyed the engine. The 414 number is the driver. The 262 number is my number in rehab and I can be reached at any time. Very respectfully, tony.
