Your headlights aren't working properly, and the daytime running lights don't provide enough visibility. You might not see any warning light on your dashboard about this problem. Other owners have reported similar issues around the same mileage on their vehicles.

Your daytime running light on one side has stopped working at 36,000 miles. The entire light assembly will need to be replaced under warranty, and the adaptive cruise control sensor will need to be recalibrated after the repair. This appears to be a recurring problem with this model.

Both of your daytime running lamps have stopped working—the right side failed first around 95,000 miles, followed by the left side around 100,000 miles. Your daytime running lights won't illuminate during the day, which could affect visibility. The fix will likely involve replacing the failed daytime running lamp bulbs or the LED modules on both sides.
