Understanding Headlight Maintenance
Headlights diminish in brightness over time, potentially losing up to 50 feet of visibility before burnout, which is comparable to the length of a tractor trailer. It’s crucial to replace headlights proactively before they fail entirely to ensure optimal visibility while driving. Sylvania engineers optimize their headlights for better illumination, delivering a brighter and wider light beam that improves road visibility and reduces glare distraction for other drivers. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of headlights not only enhance personal safety but also contribute to safer conditions for all road users.
