Auto headlights

[F150 Pat]

I found them very annoying. Disabled it the first week I had my vehicle.

I can't believe how nobody has mentioned how awesome it was when we used the left foot switch to turn on/off the high beams...

It’s wild to think there was a time that your left foot was involved in the hi-beams, clutch, and pumping the windshield washing fluid. Now a days all it gets is a dead pedal.

Yes it's all part of the aforementioned government plot. It's designed to let your left foot atrophy so you can't run away when they come for you.

I’m laughing far too hard at this

 

[Deadman]

Man, you guys are an easy sell.

I Use that switch to shut my tail lights on and off!

Wait, you have tail lights?!

Yeah you just run in circles until they pick you up...

Oh, ‘nother thing to add about the auto lights: they will go off when you drop below around 25mph, and back on at around 35mph.

I didn't realize that. I tried it last night and sure enough below 35 they don't work. Living in a fairly rural area with lots of 30mph roads, I wish they worked all the time.

I wonder if this is something on the newer mys. My neighborhood has alleys to access all the garages and the high beams on my ‘18 regularly flip on in my alley. And no, I’m not driving faster than 35, I’m usually at about 15.

Same here. Lot of back roads around me where mine come when I'm well under 35, other than the reflection issue, on my '18 Limited.

 

[Rancidlunchmeat]

For some reason, I thought the auto highbeams would turn OFF when they sensed vehicles coming.. I was rather surprised when I bought it that they actually turn ON automatically as well.

 

[Wayne Decker]

I went up my road. When I sped up to 35, high beams came on. When I slowed down, they went off. Repeatedly.

What year is yours?

 

[Deadman]

All my driving is backroads with tight corners and intersections, the last thing I want is my hi beams shutting off as I slow down for a sharp curve on a backroad. No wonder I hated them and deleted the feature the first week I had mine.

'19

 

[Wayne Decker]

I do like them on highways and main roads. Fortunately it's easy to override it when you want.

 

[m3bs]

No explanation to why they were so recalcitrant before, but I drove it about 100 miles last night and they worked fine.

 

[Pete6114]

Mine come back on as soon as a vehicle is past me, but they're turned off when i'm on the interstate. And they do turn off at slow speed as mentioned before.

 

[Lou Hamilton]

Mine work as intended on slow mountainous, windy back roads. Probably going anywhere from 15-35 mph depending. I noticed mine turned off once or twice when house lights thorugh the trees "fooled" them, but other than that they seemed to work as expected.

 

[StealthyBulldog]

I was driving behind a vehicle on a 70km/h stretch last night and the back of his vehicle was filthy, so much that his tail lights were hardly visible. Well the Expy let them know that it disapproved of their unsafe driving practices by throwing the high beams at ' em!! Haha
