Default 2013 GS350 FSport auto head lights do not turn off

Anybody else having this problem even when hitting the lock button twice? Mine seems to do it the most when it's a little bit more colder outside. I can't explain the reasoning behind that but it definitely doesn't do it during the summer. I've had my car for the past 2 1/2 years and it's been like that each year. Any suggestions?

I never had this issue with my 4gs but i did with my 3GS. Turned out it had to do with the door close sensor. It would malfunction and apparently send a signal that it was open sometimes causing the lights to stay on. I never say the door open sogn on the dash so i would have never thought to check it. Swapped out passenger sensor and problem was rectified. Not sure if yours is the same issue but worth a shot.

Did you tell your Lexus dealership about it and have them check it when it was under warranty?
