I just got a new 2021 Mazda3 hatchback w/AWD . Drove home late at night and discovered the high beams only illuminate a very small area. I brought it to the dealership and they said the lights are intentionally positioned low by Mazda, to protect oncoming drivers from glare. Adjusted them to point a bit higher but it's still incredibly dark, hazardous driving. Dealer says "we never heard of this problem before". No fixes for this - can't add a foglight kit, can't change the bulbs to something more intense, can't add any other light to this model. I've had it a week and feel unsafe at night - never experienced this in any other vehicle, sedan or otherwise. Anyone deal with this before? Advice very appreciated.


WITH high beams on, after adjustment to make them point higher

No, the windows aren't tinted. The high beams only illuminate the lower 6-9" of windshield
