I kinda had the opposite experience. Being used to driving older vehicles, I was hurtling thru the semi-mountainous pass around Tehachapi in the dark one night in my “new” 2001 Silverado and noticed my headlight switch, or “module..” was getting real hot. While feeling around on it, I somehow accidentally managed to push the goofy sequence of button pushes on a 2001 Silverado that reverts auto headlights to manual - poof! Pitch black. And couldn’t get them turned back on for about 3-5 seconds. Slowing down and hoping for the best, I nearly sharted when I finally got them back on - headed straight for a pretty significant bend in the highway. I’ve always despised the auto headlight design in the early 2000’s GM trucks, yet I still own two of them, ha. Newer is not always better, or safer or smarter
