07 passat right day time drivers light by refdude6

Took in for 20k maint. & informed dealer that right day time drivers light was dimmer than left. I was told this was designed to be this way so oncoming traffic would not have light shine in their eyes. Maybe I could buy that ridiculous excuse if it were the left light. They supposably changed the bulb out with a new one to no avail. Anybody else have this problem?

i've taken my car in 3 times now...I just bought my 2007 passat and am very disappointed in the fact that I cannot see beyond 20 feet at night...It's dangerous and unaccepetable for a car of this caliber. I may take it to another service center since I am out of ideas. I drive mountain roads to get to work and I need good reliable headlights!

Your lights are not functioning correctly!!! I got the run around for way too long too. I finally took the car in and told them I would not drive it anymore because it was a safety issue. I insisted they give me a loaner....and they did. It took them 3 weeks to get the car right. 2 new headlight assemblies, all of the level sensors, and the computer were changed before they got it right. Be persistent and insistent!!! I love my passat, but vw has got some really big issues with the electronics

If I remember correctly, when I replaced the cam belt and other parts, I had to remove the bumper to get to the headlight ass'y.
