How should the Blind Spot Alert function work? (Corsa F, 2024)

[kingmustard]

I have a 2024 Vauxhall Corsa with a trim that includes the Blind Spot Alert function.

My previous car was a 2022 Peugeot 2008, and the Blind Spot Alert function showed the light on the wing mirror any time a car was in the blind spot, so it happened very often on dual carriageways, on motorways etc (as you would expect).

However, I have never once seen the light come on either wing mirror on my Corsa.

'Blind Spot Alert' is enabled in the car's Settings.

Just in case it only works whilst actively indicating left or right, I tried that many times on the motorway when a car was near approaching and again, never a light.

Any thoughts?

EDIT: Turns out turning it off then back on in Settings solved it.

Just wanted to say thanks for making this post. I had a similar issue with Blind Spot Alert, and toggling off and back on in Settings also fixed it for me.

Hard to believe a safety feature does not work from the factory.

Makes you wonder how that part passed the Euro NCAP.

Just to confirm that turning it off on and back on again has fixed for my new corsa F with 150 miles on it

Hopefully the setting sticks and I wont need to do that a lot.

How can they all ship in a non-working state? (especially when the UI says it is enabled).

Mental.
