Headlights adjustable?

When driving at night my headlights are a mess. They seem to be aimed too low and there's a concentration of light in the center of the road. And, they don't seem to be cornering. I don't have the Intelligent Light System, just the standard LEDs. Can the lights be adjusted?

Most lights can be adjusted, but best to take to dealer to have it done, perhaps it was messed up at the factory and not calibrated correctly.

You're probably right, I have to take it in soon for the break-in service anyway. But I wish there was a DIY out there I could at least follow to check if they're out of line.

Let me know what you find. Wonder if LED bulbs can be upgraded. That standard light LED aren’t great/bright enough.

Headlights CAN be adjusted. Turns out my left light was out of spec, dealer fixed it. Now the light pattern is far more uniform across the beams....but it seems a bit on the high side. If anyone knows of a DIY, I'd love to at least check is myself.
