While driving at night with the headlights on, the drivers side low beam headlight intermittently goes out. Usually occurs in the "auto" setting but not always. Sometimes after stopping and turning off the engine and lights, the low beam will start working but not always. Next night the lights work as designed but may go out again. Happens in city and highway driving...
Poor low beam headlight illumination, which I determined is due to clouding of the interior surface of the lens in the low beam lamp socket. (not the exterior surface of greater headlight assembly) I've read some blogs and anecdotally this appears a recurring complaint with some Toyota. It is not just an issue of improper headlight adjustment. This has been experienced for several years now. Recently noticed the newer models headlamp globes appear to be transparent, so finally decided to bring to your attention.date below referring to date being reported. Not related to speed, but reporting 45 mph to complete entry reqts.
Driver's side sun visor has failed. While driving on the freeway it suddenly dropped in front of my face causing my vision of the road to be obstructed. The visor is defective in that it would not stay up and away from my face while driving. It seems like the whole bracketing system which holds the visor in place broke and when the visor fell in front of my face, it actually fell lower than if I had put the visor down myself to block the sun. The light which activates the mirror in the sun visor has also stopped working. More importantly, this is a definite safety hazard as it almost caused me to rear-end the vehicle in front of me when the visor dropped and blocked my vision of the road.
