Although this is a pre-collision error message thread I'll help derail it into a headlight thread.
If a person doesn't want auto-lights to be on, simply rotate the headlight dial to "on" instead of Auto. Auto bights will not function in 'on position.
Of course most people prefer auto lights which is totally fine for you. However, if the automatic system is too much to deal with, while it is already dark and a person is driving, they can easily turn to "on". Lights will remain lit, driver doesn't need to remove eyes from the dark road and does not have to be concerned with their safety.
Later that evening at home, you may be troubled to turn off your lights .
The following night when you can't see, you will eventually recall having turned 'off' your lights the night before.
It's really a non-issue.

To me, offering a feature that works well but implementing it poorly is not necessarily a non-issue....because essentially sprinkling sand on my privates is an issue to me.
I'd rather not have it at all in which case it would be a non-issue.

Not asking if the lines being moved, maybe you misunderstood. Was wondering if the angle was normal placement. Many places said the front collision sensor was under the black bumper insert pads, only way to check that was by removing it. Thank you for replying, but sometimes people would just like help diagnosing their problem, not a recommendation to just take it to the dealer. Different strokes for different folks. I, personally, like to try and fix things, thats me, before I take it to a dealer who throughout life I've learned though they may know more than me, usually careers about your vehicle and dont treat it as kindly as someone does their own vehicle. Again, everyone is different. But , ik just looking for other peoples ideas of what may be wrong. I feel this is turning to a back and forth conversation about life philosophy, so let's just try and stick to the what may be wrong with the truck advice, thanks.
