What owners say
I have noticed since the car was new,that while turning ,unable to switch headlights from low beams to high beams.I feel this can be somewhat dangerous, especially when getting off an interstate exit ramp.
While driving with headlights on & going around curvy road, cannot switch from hi-beam to low beam. This causes poor visibility to other drivers at that time. Will be taking vehicle to dealer.
Design of high beam switch cannot be turned off when vehicle is manuvering a right turn/curve because a part of steering wheel blocks it from being turned off causing poor visibility to oncoming traffic. Nlm
The defective wiring to the headlights switch caught on fire, resulting in injuries. Please provide further details.
The position of the steering wheel interferes with headlights low/high switch,causing the headlight switch to be inoperable. Dealer cannot determine problem.*ak when the steering wheel was turned clockwise, the multifunction lever impacts the steering wheel making it impossible to change the headlight beam from high to low and specifically, the cruise control button switch on the turn signal lever makes contact with the steering wheel the beam switch cannot be activated.
Turn signal stem located on the steering column with the cruise control and high beam functions located on stem, while turning the stem hits steering wheel preventing engagement of high beams and the stem broke off.
The turn signal switch, on steering column, broke off when driver attempted to dim headlights while column was in a position other than straight.
Turn signal switch will not allow driver to dim headlights if the steering wheel is turned. When driver attempted to do so, the lever broke off causing the dimmer to become inoperable.
When right blinker is on, high beam cannot be shut off, also blinker cannot be turned on when steering wheel is in certain positions.
Design of headlight switch makes it impossible to dim lights if steering wheel is not in certain position; blinds oncoming driver's vision. Tt
When steering wheel is turned slightly to right, driver cannot switch high beams back to low beams unless steering wheel is straighned out.
