Is there an toggle I'm not finding for a blind spot audible alert?
The light in the mirror blinks when I shouldn't change lanes.
But in all other cars I've owned, there's also an audible alert if the blinker is turned on.

Thanks!

Unfortunately no.
I loved that feature on my Charger!

I think its good there is no audible sound. My dad had it in its CX-9 Mazda. It can cause someone to rely on hearing that sound that you don't turn your head to look at the blind spot or the light that goes on in the side mirrors anymore.

We have to look at the side mirrors at least. I still do a quick visual confirmation if my blind spot is clear. Plus, I then take look (if there is a car) one lane over if they are changing into the lane i am going into.

I almost always look and rarely rely only on my mirrors. Old habit from driving some big cars with small mirrors and huge blind spots. My driver’s seat gymnastics I am sure are amusing to other motorists. ??
