Why won't Toyota put an automatic light under the hood? Or better yet, two lights. It frustrates me that Toyota won't make this $5 accessory as a standard or optional equipment. Almost all American cars have this feature, which is very handy and downright a necessity. I know, carry a flashlight at all times, but this is a basic safety feature.

 

Its because they are so dependable, you should never need a light there. If it was an American made car, you will always be under there trying to figure out whats wrong.

 

amen to that, you should see my chevy

 

As the late Sam Kinnison said in Back To School "Good Answer!"

And, if it's an american car, you'll be lucky if the underhood light works when you most need it .
