I can hardly see 6-8 meters when driving on dark street, if I travel more than the speed of 35 mph, I cannot see the divider unitil I come close to it. Complained to Hyundai several times for few years to different dealers. None of them had taken any action and they say the lights are according to specs. The lights fall close and spread wide but they do not Focus straight and far. This is happening from the beginning of the car purchased in 2014. Till now it is used only during day times but recently I have started using at night times and feeling more unsecure. Many times I had to have the high beam to be safe.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Elantra. While driving 35 mph, the driver's side sun visor released in a downward position independently and distorted the contact's visibility. The contact placed the sun visor in the correct upward position, but it would not remain secured. In addition, the failure occurred when the vehicle was not in operation. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 40,000.
