Problem overview

Some Pontiac Sunfire owners report experiencing inadequate headlights that result in poor visibility at night, even after upgrading bulbs. These issues may stem from misaligned headlights, which can significantly reduce visibility and potentially blind other drivers, making proper alignment essential. Additionally, owners often find that dirty or yellowed headlight lenses diminish brightness, emphasizing the importance of regular cleaning. Some owners consider upgrading to brighter bulbs for enhanced illumination on dark roads, while others explore installing fog lights to improve visibility in challenging conditions such as fog or mist. Furthermore, those with older or foggy headlights may benefit from headlight restoration to enhance performance. Addressing these factors is crucial for ensuring a safer driving experience in the Pontiac Sunfire.
