This complaint is concerning the headlights. I don't drive much at night but when I do it's frightening. The new projector headlights are, in my opinion, flat out dangerous. I live in a rural area with many rolling hills and few street lamps. With the low beams on, going down a slope, it actually seems like a shade is being pulled down on my windshield. The "light curtain cutoff" basically disappears into darkness on a downslope. On a flat stretch sight distance forward and to the sides is minimal. I have seen the insurance industry has rated most vehicles with these headlights as "poor". its time for the NHTSA to take action.
