At about 3500 miles I noticed the low-beam headlights did not adequately illuminate the road.   When driving at night, the low-beams don't illuminate the road signs nor do they adequately have any vertical illumination.  When pedestrians are walking on the roadway, the low-beams barley light the calf of a person's leg, but there's no indication of the persons body being illuminated.  Using the Hi-Beams, these problems are somewhat resolved. The roadways are better lit, the road signs are better lit and pedestrians are a little more illuminated.   I've addressed this with Hyundai, and while there's screw(s) to vertically align the headlamps higher, it seems they are adjusted all the way to the top position.  Even if the headlamps could be adjusted vertically, because the headlamps are so recessed under the hood, the hood cuts off any possibility for lights to vertically illuminate people.  In my opinion, this is a serious safety issue that's caused by a design flaw and the NTHSA should seriously considering deeming this vehicle unfit for road use at night.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2024","productMake":"HYUNDAI","productModel":"SONATA HYBRID","manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor America"}]}]}
