Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

(Toyota manual says use drl in daytime to save fuel and eliminate chance of burning out driving lights.) I called Toyota and they said after 2 weeks of investigation that this is the way it is. …”
NHTSA complaint #10565623, filed 2014-02, 11 miles“My 2014 Toyota Sienna does not have the dashboard instrument lights on when driving. The instrument cluster is hooded to shield it from sunlight.
