Tail Light Problems of Kia Motor Sportage

The contact's wife owns a 2021 kia Sportage. The contact stated that while he was driving in another vehicle following his wife's vehicle, the contact noticed that his wife's rear turn signals were not visible since the rear turn signal headlights were mounted on the bumper and was too low to be visible for larger vehicles such as a SUV following from behind. The dealer was made aware of the issue but informed the contact that they could not modify the rear turn signal assembly since it would void the warranty. The contact attempted to notify the manufacturer of the issue but could not connect with a live representative. The contact had not experienced a failure. The contact was concerned about the design of the rear taillight assembly. There was no failure.

This vehicles only rear turn signals are two small rectangles down in the rear bumper. When I contacted the dealership service center, they confirmed that the turn signals don't signal in the tail light area like almost every (if not every) other vehicle on the road.
