I recently upgraded from a BMW X5 to an X7 and noticed significant dark spots on the road, severely reducing visibility in those areas. The headlight casing appears to have a design flaw, creating these dark, nearly invisible patches directly in front of the car. As the vehicle moves, the car’s vertical motion causes these dark spots to shift up and down, which is highly distracting and hinders the driver’s focus. With 25 years of driving experience, I have never encountered headlights that produce such a disruptive effect. When using high beams, the dark spots are lightened but headlights projects a horizontal dark line across the road, further worsening the distraction. BMW offers no adjustment options to mitigate this issue.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2025","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"X7","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]}]}
