I have owned my '14 Forester XT with auto dimming outside mirrors for 23 days. In the beginning I clearly recall that when I approached the vehicle I couldn't get closer than a good foot or two away from the driver's door handle before I would see that the approach lights had come on. As long as I had the keyless entry fob in my pocket it was literally IMPOSSIBLE for me to touch a front door handle BEFORE the approach lights would have already come on. By the time I would get physically close enough to touch a front door handle the car would invariably have already turned the approach lights on.
But a week ago the approached lights behavior reversed 180 degrees. Ever since then, no matter how close I get to the car, as long as there is no physical contact the approach lights do NOT come on until AFTER I touch the car (usually a front door handle).
This is the exact opposite of how I remember it was in the beginning, so my question is which way is normal: the way it is now or the way I recall it used to be?
