| 2012 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | THE VERY FIRST TIME I USED MY HEADLIGHTS FOR NIGHT DRIVING I WAS TOTALLY AMAZED AT THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE VERY LITTLE FIELD OF VISION. THERE IS ALMOST A CURTAIN LIKE AFFECT AND DEPENDING ON THE ROAD YOU ARE TRAVELING THERE IS SOMETIMES AS LITTLE AS 20 FEET OF VISION. IT IS ALL BUT IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT SAFELY WITH THIS VEHICLE. IF YOU LIVE ON BACK ROADS (AS I DO) IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THIS CAR IS JUST DAYS OLD AND I CAN ONLY DRIVE IT DURING THE DAY. TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALER HAS NOT PROVEN TO BE EFFECTIVE. THE COMMENT THAT I GET IS THAT ITS JUST THE WAY THE CAR WAS MANUFACTURED AND THAT'S HOW THE LIGHTS WILL WORK. THESE CARS ARE A HAZARD AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED BECAUSE THEY CAN'T SEE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT AND I WILL TELL EVERYONE THAT WILL LISTEN ABOUT MY CONCERNS. *TR |
| 2012 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | PROJECTOR TYPE HEAD LAMPS ARE AIMED TOO LOW AND CANNOT BE ADJUSTED AS DESIGNED. ON DARK ROADS PERIPHERAL LIGHTING FROM HEAD LAMPS IS NON EXISTENT. BRIGHTS ARE NEEDED BUT NOT PRACTICAL FOR CONSTANT USE AND IS ILLEGAL IN TOWN AS WELL. THIS IS A REAL DESIGN FLAW AND SOME ONE IS GOING TO GET HURT IN A NIGHT TIME ACCIDENT DUE TO THE POOR DESIGN OF THE LIGHTING SYSTEM ON THIS MODEL. *TR |
