3 Blind Spot Detection problem

Failure Date: 07/20/2022

The 2022 Hyundai Elantra blue is Hyundai's entry level hybrid model, and after purchasing it about a month ago, we started experiencing 'near misses' while changing lanes and using the blinkers.   while other models have a visible side mounted blinker on the right and left mirrors, they removed this important feature from the entry level model.   this means there is no visible blinker on the side of the vehicle.   while many vehicles have a blinker mounted on the front and rear of the vehicle with a reflector that wraps around to the side to give some visibility, Hyundai opted for small blinker lamps only visible directly at the front or rear of the vehicle.   we have recorded a video at night showing the car with it's blinkers on as viewed from the side, and the only way to see that the blinkers are on is from the reflection on other surfaces.   we actually tried the blinker in the daytime, and it is completely invisible when the blinker is on.   the vehicle does have a blind spot warning that shows the driver when someone is in the next lane, which has been helpful.   however, on a three lane freeway, we have experienced the issue where we are changing lanes at the same time as a car in the far lane, and the blind spot warning doesn't register the other vehicle until too late.   thankfully, all we've experienced so far is honking from other drivers, but we are very concerned that this may lead to an accident.   I contacted Hyundai consumer affairs, who directed us to take the vehicle in to a dealership.   when we took the vehicle in, the Hyundai dealer rep recognized the issue, but said there was nothing they could do to take care of it since it was a design issue.   we let Hyundai consumer affairs know what the dealership said, and they said "unfortunately the dealership would be the one to assist in the blinkers on the side mirrors.   if the dealership is stating that there is nothing they can do unfortunately this would  mean that your vehicle did not come equip".
