“I was following a Hyundai Tiburon and when the rear turn signal came on, I was nearly blinded by the turn signal light, which was a clear bulb under a clear lens. This car was fairly new so I don't believe these were replacement bulbs. I suspect that this vehicle was approved with bulbs that had a yellow coating and the manufacturer has substituted clear bulbs. Could you please investigate this model and possibly other Hyundai models? Thank you.”
