“The headlights on the 15 Lancer are ridiculously dim! I purchased my 15 Lancer in october 15 and hit two deer within two months of having it! I had never hit anything since I started driving, over 8 years now, and all of a sudden when I get the Lancer, I hit not one, but two deer! Something isn't right! I can barely see at night and now I hate driving at night when I used to love it! Something has got to be done about this!”
