The lighting problem expands beyond the washer and dryer set. I am noticing it in other items too. Look at the screen shots of the automobiles...those dark lines are not supposed to be there (these vehicles are transparent/translucent). If the lighting settings in the options menu are set above the low setting, it messes up the visuals on several build items (making them translucent with those ugly lines).
Hi @Nuke615,
Are you having this textures issue with non custom content objects? From the screenshots you have shared, this seems like an issue with custom content that needs to be updated to be compatible with the new version of the game. You can learn more about this here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/the-sims/the-sims-4/mods-and-the-sims-4-game-updates/
If custom content or mods get outdated after a game patch, they need to be updated to be compatible with the new game version.

I am still checking items. I have a lot of CC...so hard to weed out what belongs to just the game itself. I'll have to remove the mod folder and check the base game items later. But I did look for updates to the cc and found some that work just fine......I now have a Ferrari LOL. I got 6 different civilian vehicles that work...plus some service vehicles as well. I will survive. 😉 Hopefully some of these things will be updated by the creators relatively soon.

the CC did not need updating...is was a SSAO issue

Found a fix for all the lighting troubles I have had since the cats and dogs patch. I simply turned off the SSAO by setting its value to false under the setting I use (medium). Every lighting issue I was having is gone, and the corners of each room are clean and crisp. All the CC I had also displays properly now without those ugly shadows/lines. The disabling of the SSAO eliminates the problem I was having, and still allows for the sun to cast shadows. Setting the lighting to low fixed the shadow/line issue, but did not allow the sun to cast any shadows.
