I happened to notice on my security camera when I was pulling my truck into the garage as I was positioning it when I turned left the left fog light was on. When I turned right the left one turned off and the right one turned on. Both didn't come on when wheel was straight. Is this something new or do I have a problem?
They’re used for cornering lights to help illuminate the area you are turning into when driving at low speed. It’s normal and a lot of vehicles have them now!
if the fog lights are off, they are steering sensitive and whichever side you are turning, that lamp will illuminate...if your fog lights are on, well they are both on of course.

As stated above, it is a feature to help illuminate the area you're turning into at low speeds (think off-roading after dark, which brings its own possible dangers) when your brights are on. It is a normal function on newer vehicles. I leave my fogs switched on, so I only see them doing this with the brights on.

Yes, any time the fog lights are off they will illuminate during a low-speed turn. So brights on, they'll do this. Fog lights switched off, they'll do this.
I almost started a thread on this the other day. I saw my truck doing this from the driver seat the other night and it weirded me out. I’ve never heard of this before.
Is there any way to disable this feature? I drive backroads, and disabling this will keep another 200 on/off cycles a day of the fog lights…which can’t be good for them.

I checked the manual and did not see a way to disable it. It appears to be disabled above 25mph though per the manual. I would think you could use forscan to disable it possibly?
Saw this while I was making some changes in Forscan. I was too chicken to change it. Plus, I had already enabled Bambi mode, so I wasn't gonna change that back to stock just to try this...
