AFTER LIVING WITH POOR HEADLIGHT ILLUMINATION AND OTHER HEADLIGHT ISSUES FOR ABOUT 19  MONTHS, I AM REGISTERING WHAT I CONSIDER TO BE  SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUES.  HEADLIGHTS:  1. NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH.  2. CANNOT BE AIMED TO GIVE DISTANCE ILLUMINATION  3. BLINK OFF DRIVING AT NIGHT  I HAVE MADE NUMEROUS, MOSTLY UNRESOLVED, TRIPS TO THE DEALER WHERE WE BOUGHT THE CAR NEW.    1. IT TOOK TWO TRIPS TO THE DEALER, TO RESOLVE PROBLEMS WITH THE AUTOMATIC SYSTEM FOR RAISING AND LOWERING THE HEADLIGHTS.  I WAS TOLD THE ASSEMBLY HAS NO SHIELDING OR SEALS TO PROTECT IT FROM PHYSICAL OR CORROSION DAMAGE  2.  AFTER ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENTS, THE HEADLIGHTS CONTINUED TO BE AIMED TOO LOW.  WITH LOW BEAM THEY ARE SO LOW THAT A PEDESTRIAN, BICYCLE, ANIMAL, MORE THAN ABOUT 30  FEET AWAY IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT.  THE HIGH BEAM SETTING IS SOMEWHAT BETTER.  WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL CLOSE ENCOUNTERS WITH DEER STANDING ON THE ROAD AND SEEING THEM BARELY IN TIME TO AVOID THEM.  ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I HAVE NOT SEEN BICYCLES OR PEOPLE WALKING ON THE EDGE OF THE ROAD IN THE DARK AGAIN, AVOIDING THEM AT THE LAST SECOND.  THE HIGH BEAM THE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH TO CAUSE ANYONE TO FLASH BACK AT ME WHEN THEY APPROACH FROM THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.  I HAVE THE (EXPENSIVE) HIGH INTENSITY LIGHTS.   THEY HAVE INVESTIGATED AUXILIARY HEADLIGHTS FOR ME BUT HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER, SUGGESTING I GO TO AN AFTERMARKET PERSON TO INSTALL ADDITIONAL LIGHTS. (I AM RELUCTANT TO DO THIS, FOR REASONS OF COMPLEXITY, AND POTENTIAL LEGALITY.)    3. I HAVE MADE THREE ADDITIONAL ROUND TRIPS TO THE DEALER FOR THE PROBLEM OF HEADLIGHTS (HIGH AND/OR LOW BEAM) THAT TURN OFF FOR NO REASON AFTER DRIVING A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.  LUCKILY IT IS JUST ONE'.USUALLY BUT NOT ALWAYS THE RIGHT SIDE.   ONE 'COMPUTER' HAS BEEN REPLACED.  THE DEALER'S SERVICE SHOP PERSONNEL INDICATE ALL THESE ARE PROBLEMS THEY HAVE SEEN PREVIOUSLY AND ARE CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CAR. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"TOYOTA","productModel":"PRIUS","manufacturer":"Toyota Motor Corporation"}]}]}
