[AT] tractor hauler a pain to install headlights.

[Gilbert Schwartz]

Howard, I am glad to hear that on your escape. The last four vehicles I have had would not turn on the rear lights when the auto mode turned on the front lights. One of those vehicles was a pickup truck. Now I am wondering what condition turns the lights on in auto mode. Several years ago my wife was driving in a rainstorm while I was behind her. When we stopped I raised the roof because she had no lights on. She advised me real quick "I had them on auto mode".
The next time you are out in the daylight take a look at the oncoming traffic and see how many have lights on the front but none on the rear, unless of course they are applying their brakes.
I am guessing now that the insurance explanation says it all. I thought for sure that EPA had something to do with it.
I guess I am just getting too old, I am one of those people that just don't matter anymore.

It appears that this condition is industrywide and seems to be always in the "AUTO" mode on the headlight switch.
