Inadequate headlights, unsafe for night visibility.
On country road when going up and down hills, the low beam light shines only one or two car lenghts and is not a beam of light but a block of light which stops abruptly. There is total darkness beyond the block of light. These lights are a safety hazard. The dealer examined the lights and says are to specifications. Toyota regional and national offices advised to submit this issue to bbb auto line, which I did. Bbb auto line advises this is a design issue and hot subject to their program. I am now looking to the dot for help. The headlams on low beam are not sufficient to see a sate distance. I would like to have a dot safety engineer drive this model car at night on a two lane county road and render an opinion. I would be willing to offer my vehicle and participate in the test drive.
