| EXTERIOR LIGHTING - HEADLIGHTS - HIGH/LOW BEAM DIMMER SWITCH | |||
| 06/10/2008 | 17000 | ||
| Tl*the contact owns a 2007 cadillac escalade. while driving between 30-40 mph with the automatic headlights activated, the high beam (flash to pass) feature suddenly engaged to warn opposing drivers of an animal in the roadway. the high beam (flash to pass) feature was functional whenever the automatic headlight feature was deactivated by manually turning off the headlights and flashing the high beams. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for inspection. they stated that the high beam (flash to pass) feature was operating as the manufacturer designed. the technician recommended that the manufacturer be notified of the issue. the manufacturer investigated the issue and stated that the component was operating to their satisfaction. in addtion, the rain tracker automatic windshield wipers sensor failed to operate properly in precepitation or mist. the authorized dealer was unable to replace the sensor. the failure mileage was 17,000 and current mileage was 47,000. | |||

| Flashing of headlights during daytime hours does not work when the headlamps are in the automatic mode. the automatic mode turns the headlamps on during evening periods & off during daylight hours. this should not be a part time feature. in order to use the flash to pass during daylight hours, the headlamps must be taken out of the automatic mode. i believe this hinders the ability to use the headlamps for a safety warning. *tr | |||

| Many new vehicles have led taillights which are strobed. some of these are strobed at such a low rate that the strobing becomes evident to following drivers. this is extremely irritating and distracting to the point that i believe it is a safety issue. i have great difficulty following such a vehicle. this is a problem even at a significant following distance, say 1/4 mile. please do something about this. *nm | |||
