Question Daylight running lights
Just picked up a 2017 RX, the daylight running lights ( I call them the Nike lights) will only come on when in manual mode, will not come on when in auto lights mode.
Our service guy says that is now the way they work, our 2015 RX came on all the time in any mode.
Doesnt seem right to me , any solutions ??

Do they come on in when you put the vehicle in drive?

The nike lights should always be on unless you are in park when first starting the car or when the light switch is in DRL OFF mode.

You guys are correct, they do come on when car is put in drive, I need to have my service adviser check here first, seems you all know more than he does.

Thanks
