THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 15 LANCER ARE RIDICULOUSLY DIM! I PURCHASED MY 15 LANCER IN OCTOBER 15 AND HIT TWO DEER WITHIN TWO MONTHS OF HAVING IT! I HAD NEVER HIT ANYTHING SINCE I STARTED DRIVING, OVER 8 YEARS NOW, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WHEN I GET THE LANCER, I HIT NOT ONE, BUT TWO DEER! SOMETHING ISN'T RIGHT! I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT AND NOW I HATE DRIVING AT NIGHT WHEN I USED TO LOVE IT! SOMETHING HAS GOT TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS!

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your
pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the
