Problem for Acura 2006 RL

The 2006 RL headslights are horrible. On low beam

The 2006 RL headslights are horrible. On low beam there is like a curtain that comes down and you can only barely see the road, and you cannot see anything above the hood of the car! Many people have blogged about this...is there a fix? It is dangerous to drive at night. I have to have my high beams on all the time to see street signs, deer on the side of the road, people walking, etc. The only time it is ok on low beams is when the road has a slight INCLINE. But a dip in the road or windy road or decline and you are screwed!

2006 RL headlamps are similar to 2005 TL headlamps. We owned a 2005 TL (great car). The headlamps are HID (high intensity discharge) and many people don't like the sharp cutoff that they have. Your only option other than driving with the high beams on is to have them professionally re-aimed. This may or may not help the problem. Take it to your Acura dealer and talk to the service department about this.

Sorry, I wish there was any easy fix.
