Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS ARE REALLY LOW, MAKING IT HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT. RESEARCHING ONLINE LOOKS LIKE MANY HONDA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. HIGH BEAMS ARE FINE, JUST LOW BEAMS.THERE SEEMS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE, BUT NOT FOR MY VIN #. ONLY ISSUE IS DRIVING AT NIGHT.
THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE ODYSSEY ILLUMINATE TOO CLOSE TO THE CAR AND NOT FAR ENOUGH DOWN THE ROAD TO SEE AND IT EXASPERATED ON HILLS GOING DOWN WHERE YOU REALLY CAN'T SEE AHEAD OF YOUR VEHICLE. AT NIGHT THERE IS A SHARP BLACK LINE ON THE WIND SHIELD WHERE THE LIGHTS STOP ILLUMINATING ABOVE THE LINE. I HAVE TO BEND MY HEAD SIDE WAYS TO SEE UNDER THE BLACK LINE WHERE THE LIGHT IS. VERY UNSAFE. I ASKED THE HONDA DEALER ABOUT IT AND THEY SAID THAT THE LIGHTS WERE AT THE CORRECT LEVEL. I TOLD THEM I CAN'T SEE UNLESS I BEND MY HEAD SIDE WAYS TO SEE UNDER THE BLACK LINE WHERE THE LIGHT ILLUMINATES THE ROAD. THEY RAISED THE LIGHTS UP FOR ME A BIT AND NOW EVERYONE FLASHES THEIR LIGHTS AT ME INDICATING MY LIGHTS ARE TOO BRIGHT. IT IS A DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN. *TR
MY HONDA ODYSSEY TOURING 2011 ADVERTISED THE AMBIENT FOOTWELL LIGHTING AS ALL BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL. UNFORTUNATELY IS SO DIM AND YOU LITERALLY HAVE TO PUT YOUR HAND RIGHT UP TO THE LIGHT EVEN WHEN IT IS AT IT"S FULL BRILLIANCE. I FEEL THAT I WAS RIPPED OFF AND IT IS VERY DECEIVING OF HONDA TO DO THAT AND CHARGE ALOT OF MONEY FOR THIS FEATURE. PLEASE CAN YOU GUYS GET HONDA TO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. THE VEHICLE IS ADVERTISED AS A LUXURY VEHICLE. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. *TR
