HEADLIGHTS HAVE A PROMINENT BLIND SPOT. DEALER IDENTIFIED THIS PROBLEM, BUT MAZDA DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. THE DEALER DROVE ANOTHER VEHICLE LIKE MINE AND IT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. I CANNOT SEE THE ROAD. THE DEALER ALSO STATES THEY DON'T THINK THEY CAN BE FIXED. I CONSIDER THIS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. THEY DID REPLACE THE UNITS BECAUSE THE BRIGHTS WERE POINTED STRAIGHT UP. THEY FIXED THAT PROBLEM, BUT THE BLIND SPOT PERSISTS.*AK
