I am writing to complain of the poor visibility from the headlights on this vehicle. With low beam on there is a black out line about 30 to 40 feet in front of the vehicle which changes with elevation of the road. I drive in rural areas 80% of the time and have difficulty seeing far enough in front to drive safely. When on high beam it is difficult to see to the sides far enough to see any objects possibly entering…

I purchased this vehicle used and have had it for one year. The head lights are the worst headlights i have ever experienced on a vehicle. Headlights do not project adequately down the road on either high or low beam. Both high and low beams are not bright enough. Poor illumination above the road and to the sides. There are blind spots when going up a hill or turning a corner. I live in a rural area and it is very…

The ford edge was bought new in december 2014, and this was the first time i drove the car at night. I live in a rural area in northeastern pa. With no street lights. The vehicle has "projection beam headlights" and on high beam, the light is so focused to the front, that you lose sight of any road you may be trying to turn onto. You can very easily run off the road since you loose the relationship of where you are…

Headlights are projector beam style with a very distinctive cutoff at the top of the beam which makes impossible to see any distance when traveling on hilly roads. Also, the headlight beams are extremely narrowly focused directly ahead making it very hard to see anything to the sides when needing to make a turn. High beams are very weak.

Whoever thought these ece headlights are great needs to get off the drugs. Just bought a new 2014 ford edge. 2 nights ago was driving on a very hilly road. As i was coming up from the bottom, the cutoff line of these things kept me from seeing two people walking in my lane. When they came into the beam, i slammed on the brakes and scared the crap out of them and me. If i end up killing anyone because i couldn't see…

Halogen headlights on low beam do not project very far down the road and do not illuminate at all above approximately 40 inches above ground level so it is impossible to read street signs when not in areas with street lights. They are aligned according to ford specifications. Very hazardous. Aaa has conducted studies on this problem and it affects multiple manafacture'svehicles that use halogen headlights. This has…
