Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)WHEN USING THE TURN SIGNALS, IT IS TOO EASY TO CAUSE THE HEADLIGHT CONTROL RING TO ROTATE, TURNING THE HEADLIGHTS OFF. HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. *NM
MY VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH A STALK ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE STEERING COLUMN THAT CONTROLS THE HEADLIGHTS, FOG LIGHTS,LOW-HIGH BEAM FUNCTION AND TURN SIGNALS. THE HEADLIGHT/PARKING LIGHT/AUTOMATIC ON-OFF CONTROL IS ACCOMPLISHED BY ROTATING THE END OF THE STALK. THE FOGLIGHTS ARE CONTROLLED BY ROTATING ANOTHER RING FURTHER DOWN THE STALK. HIGH-LOW BEAM IS CONTROLLED BY PUSHING THE STALK FORWARD OR BACK, THE TURN SIGNALS ARE OPERATED BY MOVING THE STALK UP OR DOWN. IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO ROTATE THE FOGLIGHT RING WITHOUT ALSO INADVERTENTLY ROTATING THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH, THUS TURNING THE HEADLIGHTS OFF. ALSO WHEN USING THE TURN SIGNALS, PARTICULARLY FOR A LEFT TURN OR LANE CHANGE, IT IS TOO EASY TO ALSO CAUSE THE HEADLIGHT CONTROL RING TO ROTATE, AGAIN TURNING THE HEADLIGHTS OFF. THIS OCCURRED LAST NIGHT ON I-80 IN HEAVY TRAFFIC BUT HAS ALSO HAPPENED ON SEVERAL EARLIER OCCASSIONS AND NEEDLESS TO SAY IS VERY DISCONCERTING, VERY SCARY AND OF COURSE VERY DANGEROUS. I FEEL THAT THE NHTSA SHOULD LOOK INTO THE FUNCTION OF THIS CONTROL TO SEE IF A RECALL OR RETROFIT IS WARRANTED. *AK
