spooky fog lights on New mercedes

[meri_gadi]

hi every1,

i have noticed in the new mercedes that thy have weird frong fog lights.

seen this problem on loadz of cars. u c it behind u with 1 fog on then both come on and then 1 goes off again.

is it just poor build quality or some sort off new feature????

very confused...

I believe this is the "corner follow feature" (or something like that). When you indicate, the fog light on that side comes on to light the kerb, then goes out again. Also, if the indicator bulb goes, it flashes the fog light instead.

It will put the light on if a certain angle is reached by the steering. In my opinion, this comes on far too easily. It would be better if it only happened on full lock.

As per jberks it is the corner light function, it works up to around 25mph.
