I'm having a problem with my 2014 F-type. The headlights only light up about 15 feet in front of my car. They work correctly with High Beams. How do I manually adjust the aim of my headlights so that I can see properly at night? Thanks.

Know that feeling!

At night on a country road it's like driving in fog!

I had mine adjusted for free when I had the MOT and service done - there are adjustment indicators on the black plastic trim surrounding the headlights so you could do the garage door method, but not sure exactly where each adjuster is located, so can't help you fully.

So much better for being done - I just can't understand how they came to be adjusted so low in the first place.

Look for the white adjusting screws on the back of the headlight units. One does the left and right positions, the other, up and down.
I had adjusted mine up a week after buyibg the car brand new, as they were too low.
