Consumer Description

THE WHITE RUNNING LIGHTS ON THE REAR END OF SOME LEXUS MODELS ARE HAZARDOUS. WHITE LIGHTS INDICATE AN ONCOMING VEHICLE, SO REAR WHITE RUNNING LIGHTS VIOLATE THAT RULE. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING BEHIND THESE VEHICLES IN FAIR WEATHER CONDITIONS AND HAD MOMENTARY CONFUSION, SO I IMAGINE THAT IN POOR WEATHER CONDITIONS, THIS COULD REALLY CAUSE A PROBLEM. PLEASE CONSIDER PROHIBITING THE PLACEMENT OF WHITE RUNNING LIGHTS ON THE REAR END OF VEHICLES. THANK YOU. *TR
