Description of the problem | The ability to adjust the outside driver side mirror is significantly restricted in comparison to the passenger outside side mirror. This increases the chance of an operator being in an accident due to reduced awareness and/or needed increased reaction time to compensate for this design flaw. The blind sight monitoring system should not be used as the only system to detect vehicles in your blind spot. Subaru does need to address this matter. |
