Headlights keep blowing and car will not start guessing it's the starter. I think the wires keep blowing the lights out.

I noticed when my car is running(stationary) with heat on and headlights on after couple of minutes it makes a click noice which affects the lights(headlights). When car is moving (in motion) all of a sudden lights become super dim as if they are barely any lights. Some days lights work as if they are brand new and covers the entire street.

The month after our vehicle warranty expired, everything went wrong. I had trouble turning my car on for the time when i was at work (about an [redacted] from home).. I drove to work with no issues and about 3 hours later of it being stationary, it wouldn't turn on. I tried about 10 times. I had to leave my car there overnight and call someone to pick me up. I was lucky that i realized it wasn't working during…

I just noticed two hairline cracks in the clear plastic that covers the front lights. Each one is by the yellow lights. One on each side of the car. As far as i know, nothing has hit the car. There is no other damage.

Just purchased my 2014 honda accord lx. I live in a rural area with many small hills. While driving home i noticed the low beam headlights seem to be out of focus, not illuminating objects on the side of the road within 25 feet from the vehicle, nor can you see street signs within that distance. Worse, when going up and down the small hills the roadway visibility changes rapidly depending on the angle of the car,…

At night, when i am utilizing my regular headlights on a dimly light road, my front windshield becomes partly obscured. It is as if either a mesh shade has been pulled about half way down my front windshield or suddenly i have tinting on the upper half of the window. This obscures my vision and i sometimes feel as if i need to try to look under this obscurity to see the distant part of the road. I was told by the…

The headlights on this car are terrible at night. I have perfect vision, uncorrected, and still there is like a straight dark bar across where the top of the headlights reach and nothing is visible above that point. The high beams are a little better but you obviously can't always drive with them on. This is a definite safety issue. *tr

The exterior projector headlights on the 2014 honda accord ex-l are very unsafe as you can not see above the brake line. There isn't any ambiance lighting from the front of the car when driving. This makes it very difficult to see any pedestrians, bicyclists, animals or signage that is above or on the sides of that line. I brought it into the dealership and they confirmed the headlights are aimed to their…

First time drove at night 4/20/2014. Headlights are absolutely terrible, unsafe and cannot possibly meet us safety standards. They shine, maybe 50 feet on a flat surface. Much less when going downhill. More when going uphill. Very, very difficult to see street signs, such as bend in road, stop ahead, etc., parked cars, pedestrians and animals. There is actually a defined horizontal line about half way to…

Second day i had the vehicle i was driving at night and had no issues on the highway but turning onto a rural highway with no lights i found that the visibility thru the windshield was relegated to the bottom third. The rest of the windshield appeared dark and almost impossible to see thru. I contacted the dealer and returned the vehicle and was told that what i encountered was normal because honda uses a look down…
