| Description of the problem | I got behind the wheel of a 2018 jeep wrangler, adjusted my seat for optimal comfort, visibility, and hands / feet position for safe operation of the vehicle and then noticed that the design / position of the dash obstructed the view of the speedometer and tachometer (among other info) while the vehicle is in motion (i was not in motion). This obviously can cause issues with safe operation. I posted this observation in a jeep wrangler forum to see if i'm the only person with this problem. As of today the poll sits at 53% of users having the same issue. See here: https://www. Jlwranglerforums.
