Component | VISIBILITY/WIPER |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | There is a glare in the rear window that tends to always have a negative effect on visibility. I have never seen anything like this in my 40 years of driving and owning over 20 vehicles. It seems the angle of the window combined with the light gray rear deck material creates the distracting reflection/glare. At first i thought it was the port installed tinting that caused the reflection, but now i am beginning to think it is a design flaw. Also, i see you need my name and personal information on this form and you are promising to keep it confidential and private. Now how can anyone trust any government agency these days to protect information when one of the main functions of our government seems to be spying on all the citizens and acting like the ussr circa 1960? |
