| Description of the problem | I was driving the vehicle and had the sun glare of the dashboard which has completely melted, i was unable to see the car in front of me which came to a complete stop. Given the glare of the dashboard which has melted completely due to intense sun from florida i was involved in a car accident since i cannot see car in front of me due to the large glare. My defect in the car is that the dashboard is melting and creating a very intense glare which is preventing me from being able to see and unfortunately was involved in a car accident. |
