Problems so far

Recent reports

“Headlights vibrate causing loss of visibility at night as they bounce over uneven terrain or potholes.”

Filed Jun 13, 2026

“Headlights bounce up and down a lot over rough road. This causes a noticeable "flicker" off signs and cars in front of you and can be very distracting.”

Filed Jun 10, 2026

“Low beams are susceptible to moderate shaking/vibrations that are very distracting/dangerous. They create a vertical strobe-like effect for oncoming traffic as they bounce up/down, and for the driver as well as they reflect off signs and other objects. This could be caused by their lack of attachment to the chassis directly or from the high/low beam mechanism that moves the high beam cover out of the way internally.”

Filed Jun 1, 2026

“at night, when going over any sort of bump in the road the headlights visibly shake. It’s distracting and generally disconcerting.”
