2010 Hyundai Genesis lights complaints

Filed Aug 12, 2014 · Lights · 46,700 miles · NY

I was traveling on highway roads and made lane change. Upon activating the turn signal, the headlights turn off and remained off until the turn signal was deactivated. This has occurred intermittently since. This seems to be very dangerous for night driving on poorly lit roads.

The brake lights on the 2010 hyundai genesis (and possibly other years/models hyundai vehicles) have various problems with the brake lights failing to work. This is very dangerous not only to the hyundai genesis driver, but also for any driver following behind the car. There has been various factory recalls for the 2010 hyundai genesis brakes including one that causes the brake lights not to work due to a brake switch failure: http://www.cars.com/hyundai/genesis/2010/recalls however the particular problem my car and other genesis owners have reported does not have a factory recall for it, even though it poses the some of the same safety issues that the brake switch factory recall had. Http://genesisowners.com/hyundai-genesis-forum/showthread.php?t=3269 the root cause is diode that fails which cause the brake lights not to work. (this is different that the brake switch factory recall.) I don't know how many months I drove without having brake lights. My state inspection was in january 2014. A driver that was behind my car informed me my brake lights didn't work in may 2014. I had my car towed to the dealer due to the danger of driving when the car's brake lights don't work. Apparently hyundai knows about the issue (according to the above link) : technical service bulletin 09-be-023, stop lamp z01 diode inspection procedure, appears to describe the location and procedure for troubleshooting of the diode but describes the issue as " . . . Vehicles may experience the stop lamps blinking on and off even when brakes are not applied." why is there no factory recall for this problem? It can cause serious accidents which could lead to fatalities.

We just recently purchased this car. The headlights are more like spot lights instead of flood. At night, the low beam bulbs direct a light down low, and there's a horizon above them, which is dark. It's a horizontal line ahead of you. When you start down a hill, towards the bottom, the dark area completely covers the road ahead. You cannot see anything in front and above you, like the road climbing in front of you. Also, that horizontal dark line moves up and down with the bumps in the road, and almost brings on motion sickness. If we get in a hilly area, that could become possible. The dealer won't adjust the lights higher, because they're in spec, now. This is dangerous, and should be addressed.
