2016 Acura TLX Visibility Wiper Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	While driving the car in bright sunlight there is a clare reflection from the drivers and passenger's dashboard vents that reflects strongly on the interior side window right where the left and right side view mirrors are located. The glare can be very strong on sunny days that it makes it difficult to discern if a vehicle really is in the side view mirrors. This glare comes from the chrome vents outline. This is a systemic problem as i've driven three different 2016 tlx all with the same issue. I have reported this issue to the acura dealer where i bought it. They claim this is the first they knew about it. I asked them to present it to a regional manger for resolution. Interestingly acura parts manuals have a black outlet vent (pn 77610tz3a01za) but none of the 2016 tlx can be bought with a black outlet vent. I hope that this new part number is available to settle these significant safety complaints. This has been a problem on sunny days for the six months we have had the car. The only way to remove the glare is to have both front windows completely down.
