| Description of the problem | The driver's side mirror obstructs objects on the left forward side of the vehicle. The position of the mirror is too high and too large, therefore blocking the range of vision on the left forward side of vehicle. I'm of average height (5 ft, 8in), and have attempted to correct this issue by raising the seat very high. Unfortunately, i'm having the same issue. The issue is particularly bad in urban/city driving. It completely blocks out pedestrians in crosswalks while making left turns. This has caused numerous issues, and in one case, almost striking a pedestrian. I never saw them, my passenger alerted me. |
