Consumer Description
The automatic high-beam system in my 2024 EV9 is not sensitive enough to dim the headlights for traffic. Quite frequently it will just leave the brights on even though there is obviously traffic in the way. It does this for oncoming traffic, traffic moving in the same direction ahead of me, and crossing traffic. It does dim the lights only under some circumstances and is very inconsistent. This puts other drivers at risk because the LED headlights are extremely bright in the high beam setting and will blind other drivers. I have had numerous other cars with auto high beam systems that are much more sensitive and work properly. It appears as if the system doesn't have any issues, as there are no warning lights and it behaves like this all of the time.
