Example complaints

“The head lights are completely inadequate to drive at night. If driving at night I have to drive with the brights on. No one even notices the brights are on it is still to dim for safe driving. I am 43 years old with perfect eye sight. There is no excuse for this. The forums online are filled with people complaining about this issue and even modifying the vehicle with LED strips to correct the issue. We have asked Forest River about the issue. They said they new about the issue and corrected it in their 2020 and 2021 vehicles.”
NHTSA complaint #11398920, filed 2021-03“Factory headlight does not include a low beam bulb. It only utilizes one h9 bulb for high beam and has a LED strip for low beam lighting. This low beam lighting is very dim and looks to be below minimum lumens for road/highway use. Contacted manufacture and was told the unit only has the one bulb. Please comment to is this light legal for road use? Low visibility is dangerously low.”
