    Over the past few months I've noticed that my headlights are often on during the day when I have the lights in "Auto" setting instead of the expected running lights only on during the day when using "Auto" mode. I don't believe I have a sensor that needs cleaning. Guessing this might be a gremlin for the dealer to find, but thought I'd ask here first. Thanks!

    Sensor is on top of the dashboard. Anything obstructing it?

    No, nothing on the dashboard to obstruct the sensor.
