Blind spot monitor behavior question

If the turn signal is on during lane change, does the steering wheel also vibrate in addition to the orange triangle lights?

If the turn signal is on during lane change, the steering wheel will not vibrate unless there is another vehicle in or approaching your blind spot area.

If you turn your signal on while there is a car in or approaching your blind spot (triangle illuminated), the steering wheel will vibrate and triangle will flash.
