“I own a 2000 Chevrolet silverado 1/2 ton pickup. The driver's side running front running light of the vehicle does not illuminate and has not worked consistently for two and half years. I have spoken to other owners of the same year Chevrolet pickup vehicle and they complain of the same problem.”

“The government has car makers trying to gain more fuel economy by having them make their vehicles smaller and lighter, but that is for cars almost only.

Height for headlights to be off the road when the vehicle is sitting on a level surface. …”
