The contact owns a 2011 Chrysler 200. While parked the contact noticed that the illumination of the headlights was very limited and would not allow him to see the roadway. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostics. The technician stated the headlights would be adjusted but the failure continued. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 600. Updated 11/29/11

This not a one-time occurrence. The headlight light has a very narrow height. It is literally like a curtain over the road and is constantly moving up and down with the variations in the road. One moment you can see 500 feet ahead and the next you can't see 50 feet (I am not exaggerating). It's not just that the light is dimmer the higher up you look, it hardly exists at all. This car is not drivable at night under any circumstances. It is very dangerous and will cause a wreck.

Headlights inadequate -only illuminates about 2 or 3 car lengths ahead with a distinct drop off of vision. Highly unsafe as driver cannot see further up highway. Especially unsafe at upper speeds as you are outrunning your head lights. Dealer says this is normal for projected beam headlamps. Dealer tech acknowledged as unsafe condition.
