Description of the problem | I purchased a new volkswagen jetta tdi in 2012. I am unable to adjust the left outside mirror so that it does not have a blind spot. That blind spot allows a car slowly passing in the left lane to be out of view of the inside mirror but not yet in view of the left outside mirror! The pillar separating the two doors on the driver side is located so that a driver cannot see a car in the described blind spot. |
