Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | The visibility on this car is so bad. In 40 years of driving i had 1 accident until i got this car. I have had 3 minor accidents in less than a year all due to backing up and looking out passenger side. When you back up you can't see out of the passenger side in the front due to mirror placement and door frame and in the back due to frame and headrest in same position. I feel this car was designed poorly, i have never had a problem like this before. |
