Will DRL ever spoil throughout the 10 yrs of car lifespan?

All Lights/Bulbs got lifespan,depends on how much you drive.?...but so far my near 6 years old near 70,000km Car still working fine.

That’s the problem with modern LED tail lamps. If Somehow spoil the whole assembly goes. One more thing to spoil and bleed you only.

 

Tail lamp simi wear and tear.? Shit quality it is.

Tail lamps should only be changed if kennA langgar. Or if you always park in the sun, due to aging and discoloration. Seals should also never leak prematurely.

Last time e60lci is not full led lamps

 

Mixed diodes with bulbs

 

Current model front and rear all full led

 

Spoilt must replace whole unit

Accidentally switched off my auto headlamps the other day. Forgot all about it, was in a rush and drove off in the dark.

After about 30secs of driving this message popped up.

I think if every car with auto headlamps have this feature of of reminding drivers to switch on their headlamps in the dark, it will cut down the numbers of drivers driving around without lighting on.

Thing is, does this make it safer? I kind of feel too many features "dumb down" drivers to the point they take things for granted and never check already. Like blindspot warning, eyesight...... Even wipers are now auto on?

Well, it depends on driver.  Only dumb driver will be dumb down.

Heat sink/circuit burnt problem. The LED will outlive everyone.

 

With hot engine bay and enclosed airtight housing, it is a magnet for premature death.
