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.

Headlights failing or too dim by model year
What owners say
The windshield has a defect in it. At night when passing other vehicles when their headlights hit the windshield looks like 1000's of specks thus obstructing vision. I bought this vehicle used in 2018 this vehicle to my knowledge hadn't been involved in any wrecks to have caused this.
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
Brake warning light comes on dashboard and makes beeping sound when brake is not on, while I'm driving. Its been leaking under the dashboard by the foot pedals, almost every time we get a good rain shower in florida. When I get in after a rain and drive, it plus in on my feet or the passenger side.I asked them to check it and they said my windshield is the problem I should take it to my insurance to deal with. The car is extra loud even when window are altho way up. Headlights are very weak, you can barely see them on the road at night.
While driving on the highway in the rain, the radio stopped responding and eventually went black, the headlights went out although they were marked on inside the vehicle, odometer also became unresponsive. While steering to the left the vehicle went right instead
