Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I noticed high beams were very high right after i took delivery in nov. 2005. because, at the time, i did very little night driving, it didn't bother me. it wasn't until about october,2006, when i had some night local driving to do, that i noticed how the high-beams so nicely lit up my neighbors second story windows. i quickly learned to use 'low-beams only" in our development!!! i called ton bush motors in jacksonville to ask if they had found a cure for this problem. they said the service mgr said he thought he could take care of it. as i have been following these complaints for a while on the 'net, my first thought was "oh, sure." on 12/20/06, i left the car with the service people. within 30 minutes they paged me, saying that it's all set. that night, i drove the car all thru' the development....... not a single case of second story lighting !!! and the low-beams give adequate coverage. i drove onto florida a1a the next night south to st augustine, and had great visibility the whole way. i don't know what "tech 336" did, but my lights are now fine. *jb
