I just noticed (1st night drive, only 800 miles on the truck) the swiveling (15 degrees apparently) headlights. Very cool. At first I thought the car behind me was flashing his brights on the twisty uphill street but soon realized it was happening with my steering inputs. Googled it and read what FCA did. “1st use of adaptive lights on a pickup.”
Bravo FCA engineers!

Now theres another reason to buy a factory extended warranty...if it covers lights...

I have the halogen headlights with fog lights and if the fog lights are off and I am making a turn to the left and once I reach 25 MPH the left fog light turns on. Same goes for the right turns as well. Its a neat feature for lighting the path.

Works with the LEDs, too. However, I have my fogs programmed to come on with the headlights at all times, so I don’t take advantage of that feature.

What did you use to program that?

It’s just one of the many seat memory settings, I believe. When I brought home the truck last year, I turned them on with my headlights, saved my “Memory 1” on the door, and they’ve come on with my headlights ever since.

Either that or they just remember “last known setting”. I haven’t tested this.
