Why is this even an argument? I already have googled this EXTENSIVELY. So what part of auto headlight function do you disagree with? Do you even know what the hell its suppose to do? When it’s daylight, the headlights supposed to turn OFF automatically and the MMI supposed to go into Day Mode, and when it’s dusk/nighttime, it’s supposed to turn ON automatically and the MMI supposed to go into Night Mode. These are the facts. What part of THAT are you disputing?? Do yourself a favor and actually go to a dealership (any dealership) and ask them about how auto headlights supposed to work before talking.

Hi. Thanks for the response. I think what you are referring to are the Auto High-Beams. My car also has this feature and works flawlessly, where at night, the High Beams go on automatically, and switches back to low beam headlights whenever it senses traffic or intersections- so as to not blind other drivers.

What at I was referring to are the Automatic Headlights function where it’s supposed to detect ambient light conditions and turn on/off your normal low beams headlights automatically at day/night. Mine happens to stay on indefinitely regardless of the light conditions, unless I manually disable the Auto Headlight feature.

In all honesty, because you are making one out of it. Relax. Maybe yours is worse than any other one and needs to be fixed. It’s certainly possible. But what he is talking about is in FACT a well known issue with the sensors. I don’t think that i have had a car lately that didn’t have the problem to some extent.

Respectfully, I’m not the one questioning my knowledge of how the Auto Healights supposed to work to the point where I’m supposed to Google it. If his point was that most people don’t have this problem and mine was a unique situation, then simply say that. But that wasn’t what he was saying. I’m simply inquiring if others have this problem and if so, how did they fix it. I’m not asking how the Auto Headlight functions, as this guy assume to think I don’t know.

Oh I see. Apologies for misunderstanding what you meant. I don’t think it’s that because right now the headlights are on indefinitely, regardless of time of day or brightness. It’s like the light sensor think it’s night time all the time. Also checked sensor was clean and not blocked in any way. I’m thinking it’s probably a faulty light sensor, but hopefully it’s something that can remedied with a factory software reset, and not a hardware replacement. I’ll see what the dealer says. Just a little frustrated with a 2 week old car. Thanks for the reply.
