| Description of the problem | Headlights are set in 'auto' mode, but erratically/sporadically with no rhyme or reason, they will shut off, then turn on. One time i was able to record the event on my phone (available is requested). But another time they turned off then on (like i was flashing my lights) while driving. Another car was trying to enter traffic and thought i was flashing him to enter, resulting with me hard-braking to avoid hitting the entering car. This 'flashing' of lights has happened on more than one occasion, but i can't duplicate on demand (which is why the hyundai dealer is stating they can't do anything about it. This is a driving safety issue. This has happened on numerous occasions, but i indicated the latest below. |
