3 Headlights problem of the 2004 Mercedes Benz SLK230

Failure Date: 06/14/2004

The new high-intensity headlights, that are bluish in color, are extraordinarily blinding. This headlight, obviously, should have never been approved, and never used. Perhaps it is an improvement to the drivers that use the bluish headlights, but it is a safety hazard to oncoming automobiles. They need to be banned before (more) lives are lost. With the NHTSA being so safety conscious, I cannot fathom why these headlights were ever approved, and even now that we know how blinding they are, why they have not been banned. You really need to resolve this problem. Thank you.
