1 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 12/10/2009

Normal low light beam is cut off by the design of the surrounding hood area of the vehicle. This design factor cuts off the projected beam and limits the distance of clear visibility. The problem was described during dealer service and was told, that is how it was designed. No adjustment of light is possible in order to improve the night low beam visibility. The high beam is not affected & seems unobstructed. For daylight running lights it would be acceptible but for limiting night light projection by design is questionable. Is there a requirement for low beam minimum projection? if so, the issue needs studied & corrected. This presents a safety concern since distance visable on low beam is decreased & obstructed. Any explanation or help in this matter is appreciated.
