| Description of the problem | I've had to replace the turn signal bulbs several times (3 times so far). The 2015 model uses one light to function as both the daytime running light and also as the turn signal. It looks to me like they overheat and it was probably a bad design in my opinion. I feel like hyundai needs to strongly consider a recall to rectify this ongoing problem. I don't ever remember having to replace a turn signal on any of the vehicles i've ever owned and it seems this will be an ongoing problem. It creates a bit of a safety issue too - being without a front turn signal when this happens. I put march 16 below as that was the most recent occurrence. |
