| Exterior Lighting problems |
While driving in snow storm I had to pull over and I noticed lights were covered with snow . Led lights will not produce heat to melt snow the lip above and the ledge below traps the snow and with the way the headlights are set up the snow sticks on the lights which affects visibility creating a safety issue. Same thing happens in rain. I have been to a parts store and a mechanic shop both shops said this is a poor design. The lip and lower ledge trap the snow and led lights will not melt the snow. This vehicle would be unsafe to drive in a snowstorm because of poor vision. Thank you.
