Does the 4G TL have headlights that turn on automatically in the dark, or when wipers are used?

Thanks

Yes there is an automatic setting for the headlights triggered by darkness.

But not when wipers are used.

Thank you both!

Just curious: Are you in California? We have a new law that states when your wipers are on your headlights need to be on too. Strange, but true!

We have that law in the Metro NYC area for a while now.

I'm in MD, where I dont believe its a law. However I believe it should be a safety feature included on ever car made. It can't cost them more than $5 to put a simple AND gate and photodetector in a car.

I rented a Ford once that turned on headlights with the wipers, was impressed.

Sorry to bring up dead thread, but in MD you are required to turn headlights on when you use windshield wipers.

Same in Arkansas

that's the way it should be!

it was raining really hard today in Toronto. Speed on the highway is usuall 100-110kmh, ppl were driving 50 because it was raining so hard, yet.. they still dont have the common sense to turn on their lights.... visibility was 20-30ft at best??
