4 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 01/15/2021

Night time driving is very difficult with just the low beams on. If the weather is bad, cloudy, or allmost no moon light, it is most noticeablewhen making left hand turns. The road can appear pitch black and I was unable to see the double yellow lines. In addition a slight upward grade adds to the problem. I'm not aware of this being a problem while the high beams are on however I have not been able to test them in the most troubling area that I frequently drive due to on coming traffic. High beams have helped in many areas that are difficult to see lane markers with just low beams. Parked in my driveway, the daytime running lights appear far brighter than the low beams when I turn the car off.

5 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 06/04/2018

My car wouldn't start it would turn off as I'm sitting at a light, all my lights would blink on and off it was making a clicking sound then it finally turned on and my tire pressure light came on and a triangle with an explanation came on. I received a recall notice on my car, so I took it in and they told me it was the transmission and had to fix it they had my car for a whole week. I received my car back and about 2 months later my car continued to have the exact same problem. They fixed nothing!!!! my cars in the shop right now as we speak because of the same problem.

6 Exterior Lighting problem

Failure Date: 09/16/2017

Very poor lighting when using low beams. Makes driving in winter or rainy conditions difficult. Also no light to sides of vehicle in low beam mode makes sharp turns on dark roads almost blind. I almost hit pedestrian that I couldn't see until I turned toward him. Dealer has checked vehicle and reported lights were working correctly.
