1994 Dodge Intrepid: headlights failing or too dim

Filed Dec 17, 2003 · Lights · WI

Headlights are adjusted within specifications but are not bright enough to to be able to see clearly with or without the brights on. I can drive with the brights on all the time and not have a single person flash theirs at me. This is very dangerous when driving where there are no street lights.

Both front headlamp lenses assemblies are severely, internally corroded. Light output is tremendously diminished and therefore is a major safety concern.

These headlights are the worst, my old 1969 buick had a better beam pattern. The housing is made of plastic and cracks very easly that can knock the allignment out.. I must use the fog lights at night to see properly. Accidents will happen. It's just a matter of time.

My headlight covers (a small bulb goes on the inside of the cover ) has been getting cloudy for the last 3 or 4 years. They are now to the point that there is a safety problem at night. I don't think I should have to pay the $125 a piece for a defect. Both are defective.

Both connecting bolts that connects the inner tie rods to the steering gear broke as I was turning in a driveway. I had just drove 50 miles on interstate 85 from smiths, al to tuskeeggee al. When I arrived at my destination as I turned from the ashfault highway on to the concrete drive way I heard a thump! That was when the bolts sheared into. My estimate speed was around 2 m.p.h. Also the headlights on the intrepid are too dim for night driving. The parklights lens stay clear while the headlight lens collects moisture dust and dirt after a period of time the lens start to turn brown which inpairs the ability to see well enough for night driving
