    Rear end collision hazard due to defective, poorly designed, automatic headlight systems. Almost got rear ended twice due to lack of tail lights, while in motion, driving! Toyota claims the 2014 corolla has auto headlights. While the switch is kept in "drl" daytime running light mode the car tricks you at night into thinking the auto headlight, side markers and taillights are on after starting the car, when they are…

    The low beam part of the headlight assembly in the corolla sports 2014 is irreplaceable. I have seen multiple corolla 2014s on the road with atleast 1 of the lowbeam headlights not working and it could be a problem either with the electrical system or the wiring must be getting pinched as it has no guard from getting pinched if it's harnessed via the front of the car near the bumper. I am personally trying to fight…

People who drive this corolla's are taking their risk specially at night…

This has happened numerous times with some oncoming traffic turning on their high beams and leaving them on as they approach our car. I have checked to make sure that low beams are on when there is oncoming traffic. I have had the toyota dealer check the headlight adjustment twice. Their response is that the headlights are…

    I was not familiar with the light switch on the vehicle that i had just purchased and believed that i had turned on the lights of my vehicle. In reality i was driving with the taillights off because the light switch was in the "dlr" position. (the light switch is behind the steering wheel with small letters that can't be read in the dark). There is no indication that the taillights are off when the switch is in this…
