The left headlight projects three dark shadows on the road surface along the left edge and middle of the road in front of the vehicle Someone walking or standing on the side might not be visible and when the vehicle is turning to the right the shadows flow along the very edge of the roadway obscuring anything in its path. The car has been to the dealership twice and they verified that the shadows due exist and are operating as intended.
