				The projector lights on my 2014 gmc sle are a hazard on dark wet roads about 50 ft. vision at best.I have 3500 mile on the truck hit my first deer driving the same road for 28 years? by the time I saw it,it was to late. the high beams shine the tree tops and barely the shoulders of the road? Not good for spotting the amish traffic at nite every nite. GM need to recall these lights as soon ASP... already cost me a new front bumper???
