Sep 302020

Outback 2.5L

  • CVT transmission
  • 16,000 miles

As other posters have noted, the stock headlights on my new 2020 Subaru Outback (base model) are angled too high. Combined with the switch to brighter LED lights it appears to oncoming drivers like high beams. At night on country roads, four out of five cars flash their high beams at me which is incredibly dangerous for me by blinding me as well, so this is not just a tiny problem - it is huge.

I took it to the Vegas dealer I bought the car from and they pointed the lights at a wall and measured their height and indicated the headlights are within current allowed specs and brightness, but this is clearly not the case in the real world. I have never had so many cars and even semi trucks flash their high beams at me in the last six months - it makes driving at night unpleasant and dangerous. PLEASE FIX THIS SUBARU!!!
