“The low beam headlights have a near 0% effectiveness. I leave the headlight switch in the always on position, but at night I often have to switch the headlights off and then back on to verify they are on. When they are on at night, the headlights are at near 0% effectiveness.”

NHTSA complaint #11002505, filed 2017-06, 85,000 miles

“The quality of low beam lights for night driving is insufficient for driving. I have complained to my Toyota dealership in baytown tx and their recommendations of cleaning the lenses and replacing the bulbs has had no effect. High beams work fine. My first complaint was in 2008 and every time I brought the car in for maintenance, etc. Maintenance. I'm afraid for my life at night when it is inconvenient to use my high beams. …”

“Driving at normal speed my headlights would go out by themselves. To get them on again I would have to turn the switch on and off. I was stopped twic by state trooper and given a warning.”

NHTSA complaint #10731896, filed 2015-07, 131,000 miles

“High beam headlights came on and would not turn off. Fuses had to be pulled due to the battery being drained. Online research shows there is an apparent problem with the headlight relay or switch but there is no information online where they are located. Also there is a severe knocking noise in the front end. The rack and pinion had to be changed as well as the struts and the car doesn't even have 50k miles on it. Toyota is junk!”
