Headlights get covered with slush and snow while driving causing you to lose vision of the roadway at night. You are not able to see creating a safety risk to you and others on the road, potentially causing an accident that would cause serious injuries or death. Yes, it can be inspected upon request. Notified our dealer and was advised that this has never been brought to their attention as a problem from any other buyer. During our last vehicle service at our dealership when notifying them of the concern no issues with the vehicle were found. Warning lamp (obstruction) appears while driving. When the warning lamp illuminates, we need to pull over (sometimes not in a safe environment), wipe the slush/snow off of the headlights and proceed traveling. After wiping the headlights off, warning lamp on dashboard returns to normal operations.

The rear directionals on my 2024 Hyundai Tucson are only 2 feet off the ground and only about 2 inches wide. At this location and size I believe they can be difficult to see (unsafe) especially if a large truck is following to close to the Tuscon. This is a very uncommon location. Most other vehicles have the rear directionals located with the brake lights which are about 4 feet off the ground.

The rear turn signals sit really low. Several times I've had cars that clearly did not expect me to turn, yet my turn signals were on. I asked my husband to check my lights and we realized if a car was too close behind (which I can't control) or a larger vehicle it would be impossible for them to see the turn signals in the rear. I checked for other complaints and sure enough this is a big concern for many - so much so that a number of folks are trying to fix it by installing LED lights in the hopes of bringing attention to their turn signals! Research is that there is nothing illegal with this, several car manufacturers are doing it and input from the manufacturers is its for aesthetics. I'd rather have an ugly car than an unsafe one. Called the dealer - they were unaware, but asked if they would change the bulbs to LED. They have to find after market bulbs but will call us back. My car is two months old and I don't want it any more - I now fear being rear ended. Many in the forums felt the same way. There should be guidelines, laws, something to prevent manufacturers from sacrificing vehicle safety.
