## Narrative
The headlights are horrible.  I am unable to drive safely without using my bright lights.  When I dim my headlights before approaching an oncoming car it is dangerous.  On October 28, 2023 I did just that and missed seeing a deer due to the lack of visibility due to the defective headlights and hit the deer damaging my vehicle's right headlights.  Prior to the accident, I invested in installing fog lights to remedy the situation, but it still did not help.  I am holding Acura responsible for my accident which was due to defective headlights.
