What owners report
THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND DO NOT REFLECT ENOUGH LIGHT. AFTER MY MOTHER COULD NOT SEE THE ROAD AND RAN OFF AND HAD AN ACCIDENT I INSTALLED HID BULBS BUT STILL THE SAME PROBLEM DUE TO THE HOUSING GIVING VERY LITTLE REFLECTION OUT TO THE ROAD.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1995 LINCOLN MARK VIII. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM CAUSING THE CONTACT TO COAST THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 179,000.
DIM HEADLIGHTS CAUSE POOR STREET VISIBILITY AND HIT VEHICLE PARKED IN THE STREET IN A DARK COMMERCIAL AREA. HEADLIGHTS CANNOT BE OPENED TO SERVICE AND HEADLIGHTS NO LONGER AVAILABLE TO ORDER NEW. NO AFTERMARKET OPTIONS. HAS BEEN USING HIGH BEAMS IN DARK AREAS. *TR
HEADLIGHT LENS BECOMES DISCOLORED AND NO REPLACEMENT AND LENS CANNOT BE REMOVED TO CLEAN INSIDE. LIMITS VISUALIZATION OF ROAD AND ONE COULD HIT WILD ANIMALS CROSSING THE STREET. *TR
POOR VISIBILITY AT NIGHT DUE TO POOR LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. HIGH BEAMS EQUIVALENT TO WHAT LOW BEAMS SHOULD BE. HAVE EVEN REPLACED HEADLIGHTS WITH USED PARTS WITH MORE REFLECTIVE MATERIAL INTACT. HAVE PURCHASE POLISHING KITS FOR LENS. LENS REMAINS YELLOWED AND SCRATCHED, AND LIGHTING DIM DESPITE USE OF SYLVANIA SILVER STAR BULBS. NO NEW HALOGEN LIGHTS AVAILABLE, AND USE PARTS ARE WELL OVER 100 A PIECE, AND CONTAIN THE SAME DEFECTS. HID KITS ARE $150+. OWNER SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR AFTERMARKET ENHANCEMENTS TO VEHICLE TO ALLOW FOR SAFE NIGHT DRIVING WHEN HEADLIGHT DIMNESS IS DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE INHERENT DESIGN OF THE HEADLIGHTS.
