So, I hit a pothole. Pretty jarring.

Anyways, after the fact, my driver side headlight is pointing up.

It should be the opposite: the driver side should be pointing low to prevent blinding on-coming traffic, and the passenger side should be pointing (relatively) high. The passenger side actually seems unaffected; it beams at a level where it should be. It's only the driver side headlight that is acting up.

It's bad enough where it looks like I have my high-beams activated, especially when I see the illumination of the car in front of me.



So, what's the diagnosis?

 

This has happened to a good amount of members. Just adjust it back down:

adjusting the headlight is in the car manual..forgot the page but its 300 something.

 

This happened to my car when I was backing out of my driveway, which is inclined by the way, and turning on the headlights at the same time.

 

this happened to me driving over a crappy road in santa ana. I just had to reaim my headlight to fix it.

 

Widely known problem. If the car is under warranty, take it to the dealer and they will fix it. Atleast the trick worked with our local dealers.

 

Thanks for everyone's help.

Even though I monitor the forums, I still get to miss a couple of things...

 

today, I actually noticed that my driver side was pointing way too lower than the passenger side
so I got my self a screw driver and level it up
my driver side is LITTLE lower than the passenger side,,I hope it doesn't blind the opposite traffic

 

hm...since i dropped my car till now i never do anything to my head light.

 

They are set like that from the factory. It's is so you don't blind oncoming traffic.
