Issue

Issue:
On certain cars, the adaptive high-beam assist system may not function as intended. The camera software may not perform to specifications and automatically lower the light beams when oncoming traffic is detected.
Note: The high-beams can be turned off by turning the light switch to “manual light” mode.

Safety Risk:
If a driver is unable to turn off the high-beams, the increased glare for other traffic could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:
The company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their car to a dealer for a software update for the adaptive high-beam-assist system.
