Headlights problems of the 2018 Hyundai Elantra

Starting summer 2021, we began having an issue with the parking lights randomly coming on and off when the car is parked (engine off and car locked). The dealer could not duplicate the issue and therefore did not repair anything. The car went to college with our daughter and mostly sat parked and was rarely checked on. Now that she is home for the summer, we are again aware of the problem. The safety issue began on Saturday June 18, 2022 when the headlights spontaneously turned off while driving at night on a dark road. Twice! I am trying to work through the local dealer to remedy the issue; however, they say there is no known issue. In the meantime, I am reporting it here. My daughter was able to get the headlights to turn back on by turning the control knob until they came on. Other details: the headlight control is always in the auto position. The steering column has had two prior warranty repairs. The first time it was completely replaced. The second, they did some other repair that I am unsure of the details. Given the wiring goes through the steering column I can't help but wonder if it is somehow related. The dealer of course says it is not.

The headlights beams hardly reach across an intersection. . They do not illuminate road signs like speed limit, and street name signs. . Its impossible to drive on rural roads that have dips in them unless your slow down to 15mph (not good when the speed limit is 45 on these roads. . . . The headlights disappear on suburban streets as well. . . The first image there are two stop signs . . . . You can see the post they are on but can you see the signs ? the second image shows the beams of the car on a fence . . The car is parked 26' away from a 74" high fence im scared to drive this vehicle at night. . . . You cant see stop signs. . You can see the legs of pedestrians but not their torsos.
