| Description of the problem | On my 2015 toyota tundra,the light from the radio display is so bright at night it makes this truck very dangerous to drive. When it rains at night it makes it 10 times more dangerous. This truck needs a dimmer switch for the brightness on the radio for night driving. If you wear glasses like me, the light from this display make a glare. I have two kids, one is 15 months and the other is 3 years. I do not like to go out at night with them in the truck do to this unsafe feature. Something needs to be done about it !!!! |
