 Description of the problemThe image in the driver side rear view is distorted into dual or blurred image. It is difficult to capture while moving, but is, escalated when multiple vehicles and lanes are present. Escalated even further in inclement and night driving conditions. The spot mirror is integrated with the main rearview mirror further distracting the driver from the road ahead as well as points to the same line of horizon that proves to be both driver and passenger rearview mirrors, making side and rear safety cushion observation ineffective and inefficient. Many citizens install pick up bed truck caps to protect their belongings. The design of these mirrors alone is detrimental to safety observation. Add in defective performance sits on the slope of reckless endangerment. Which brings me to the indented signaling programed into the turn indicators. This indented feature promotes unsafe turning/lane change maneuvers. Using the 100 ft. Rule. It is impossible complete a safe lane change and share the road with other drivers in the time allotted 3 flashes. Three before , three during and three after is pushing a less experienced driver. None the less is the accepted courteous driver rule, not to mention the rule of law. At the very least this mirror should have a warning of poor visual when installing truck cap and dealer should be required to warn prospect thereof. As well as the manufacturer needs to offer an optional application. Safe cars save lives. This photo examines the defect occurring at center angle of mirror. The defect is more pronounced moving towards the edge. But definitely occurs before the line caused by auto dimming film. ( unable to upload photo) but available on request. Update! 5/11/2017 as of now i am allowing fomco to repair and replace this defective mirror. I still believe it to be a safety design flaw and should be removed upon verification of towing intention.
