What owners wrote

The headlights beams hardly reach across an intersection.. They do not illuminate road signs like speed limit, and street name signs.. Its impossible to drive on rural roads that have dips in them unless your slow down to 15MPH (not good when the speed limit is 45 on these roads.... The headlights disappear on suburban streets as well... The first image there are two stop signs .. ..you can see the post they are on but can you see the signs ? The second image shows the beams of the car on a fence ..

I was stationary in my parking space at home when this happen...it also began bumping and dragging if to shut down again on 10/20/2018. Each time car was taken to dealership..next, the instrument panel when blank while driving on 10/20/2018. Now this time it was driven to dealer, they could not duplicate the mal function.
