    ‘Recent’ interior light recall?

    My allspace is having some warranty work done, and they’ve mentioned they’re also doing a recent interior light recall.

    I can’t find mention of one, from googling, besides disabling the sunroof lights(already done on my car) which isnt recent.

    Are they re-enabling the lights? I hope so.

    I haven't heard that there's a fix for the ambient lighting. I thought this was just getting disabled in the Allspace as a preventative measure until there's a permanent fix.

    There is a fix being applied to UK cars, whether it is a permanent thing is unknown.

    I had my screen replaced a few weeks ago (it had the vertical lines issue) and they did the recall fix at the same time. I can't tell any difference, and the sunroof lights still go on at night.

    I got my car back. No sunroof lights still. In fact, I can’t even see them in the channels...

    Can others actually see the led strips?

    I also don’t have them as a selectable item in the screen where you play with the ambient lighting(doors and foot wells)

    so my car isn't actually deactivated, according to my dealer. never has been according to what they see on their internal database(s)

    so it's going back to be sussed out and then likely back again to have whatever they decide, applied. i'm assuming itll be a software update to re-enable the feature.

    this updated recall is the same as in europe. a fused patch lead is installed onto the circuit, as an extra layer of protection.
