The headlights are very dim on this vehicle. This is a brand new car but it is the ls model which does not have separate daytime running lamps. Instead of daytime running lamps, the headlights are on anytime the ignition key is in the run position. Whether or not the headlight switch is set to "auto" or the headlights are turned on manually makes no difference in headlight intensity. I've taken the car to the dealership and they claim that they cannot find the problem. But the problem persists. When I drive on he freeway at night I can tell that the headlights on neighboring cars are brighter. I am often forced to use the high beams when there are no other sources of illumination. I wonder if the lighting "computer" is supposed to be able to control the power of the headlights. I've noticed that chevy cruzes with discrete dt running lamps (leds) still utilize the low beam headlights (projector beam) but in a dimmed mode. My vehicle has old fashioned halogen headlights. I need to determine if the lighting computer is dimming my headlights because it can't differentiate night from day. This problem persists at all times. It could be that this vehicle model has poor headlights. I've owned and driven many cars over a long stretch of time. But rarely have I driven a vehicle that had such poor headlights.
