Filed: Dec 2025

Your headlights are too dim in dark conditions, making it hard to see the road ahead. Because of this, your lane departure warning and road assist features aren't activating properly on dark or rainy roads where they can't detect lane markings. This creates a safety risk when driving at night, especially in unfamiliar areas.

Your headlights on the low-beam setting are too dim to see the road safely. While high beams would work better, they're too bright to use in traffic with oncoming vehicles. This creates a serious safety hazard, as you've had near misses with animals and obstacles that you couldn't see in time.

Moisture is accumulating inside your headlights, which reduces their brightness and makes it harder to see at night. This creates a safety hazard when driving in low-light conditions. The fix will likely involve replacing the headlight assembly or resealing it to prevent moisture from entering.
