“The interior dome lights are touch controlled. on multiple occasions the dome lights have randomly started turning on and off and becoming generally unresponsive. One of the occasions happened at night while driving causing significant visual impairment and distraction. having a bright LED interior light in your eyes really messes with your exterior visibility as well as constantly trying to turn it off with the controls being unresponsive makes it doubly dangerous. …”
