2009 Acura TL Visibility Problems, Complaints and Defects

 Issue ID813028
 Internal NHTSA #10352654
 ManufacurerHONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.)
 BrandACURA
 ModelTL
 Model Year2009
 File date27/08/10
 ComponentVISIBILITY
Product type codeVEHICLE
 Description of the problemThe lower part of the dashboard, at mid level on the left and right sides next to the vent openings, is finished with a reflective material that causes severe side mirror glare when driving with sunlight coming from the rear. The glare is so bad, that it creates a blind spot in the side view mirror. When this happens, the glare almost completely covers the entire surface of the mirror, making it impossible to see whatever might be in the next lane or behind. In an emergency situation, if you come across something in the road and must change lanes, if you look into the mirror, you can't see what is in the lane next to you because of the glare. This could lead to an accident, particularly if there is not enough time to turn and look.
