Is all F-sport cornering light move when you turn? Or only F sport with certain option only. I have 2017 F sport.
How to adjust cornering/ fog light? Seems too low.

More hilariously inaccurate CL articles.

The button you point to is not an "auto
Mode" to the HVAC, and it doesn't do what you say it does. That's the button for the S-FLOW mode, which detects when only the driver is in the car so it directs all heating and cooling towards them. A pretty neat feature in itself, but it isn't unique to the NX. Nor is the automatic humidity detection.

VIN placard is still in the door jamb.

Correct. That button essentially blocks out the airflow to the rear seat, and concentrates it up front at face level. I don't know where the OP came up with the idea it is an A/C auto mode.

VIN placard is still in the door jamb.
According to the Owners' Manual for the 2017 NX, the VIN is actually located in three places.....The usual spot at the base of the windshield, on the Vehicle Certification Plaque (door jamb), and, of course, under the right-front seat. I think the OP simply did not notice that it was still located in the door jamb as well, probably an honest mistake.....I wouldn't beat him over the head with at least that part of it.

Nor is the automatic humidity detection.
Yep...this is the second Buick that I have had with that feature.....certainly not unique to Lexus.
