Light off feature gone

Does your car have an "auto" switch on the stalk? If so are you saying you put it on auto and it never shuts off? Sounds like your light sensor

Also the delay when the car is off takes about a minute I believe but I could be wrong.

No, when Lights are on (park or main headlights) during started engine, them are supposed to switch off after shutting down engine and leaving car. Auto function is useless for me, have to use parking lights (have brighter LED bulbs) during day

Yeah, I can see where that would be a huge pain.

I wonder if the owner's manual is referring to use of the Auto Light feature instead of leaving the stalk in the "on" position. If it is, then you may have to live with this. But if it's not, then you have a legitimate gripe with Nissan.

What is the dealer saying? Are they saying that the lights should turn off automatically?
