1 Headlight Switch problem

Failure Date: 07/08/2017

Auto headlights delay setting in Ford Fusion. I took a rental car and ensured the lights were set to automatic. There is a hidden feature in Ford Fusion where we can set a delay for the lights to turn on. I entered a tunnel which is completely dark and no lights were there inside the tunnel. I could not see anything as the lights didn't turned on. I fortunately met with a small incident but this hidden feature doesn't make any sense. I drove other vehicles where in automatic lights switch on immediately. I am unaware of this setting as I don't own this car. Please ensure manufacturer disables this setting and they ensure safety of Ford users. The rental company declined to accept it as their fault but I want someone like NHTSA contact rental car companies to disable these settings and also contact the manufacturer and understand the benefit of this setting. As per me it is a risky setting without much positive benefits. I want to ensure safety of other Ford users.
