Equinox 4-cyl

  • 42,000 miles
The Chevrolet Equinox instrument panel top pad has a integrated compartment in the center. The compartment has a bright chrome latch for opening the compartment. The latch has a very reflective surface. When driving South East the sun reflected off the latch blinding the driver even with sunglasses. View of the road was lost and the seat had to be repositioned to move the drivers eyes from the reflection. Photograph is available.

Equinox

  • miles
In new Chevy vehicles there is a center storage compartment located above the center console. This is held down in place by a simple push button. The button however is problematic as in some trims it is a chrome feature. In sunny condition, the reflection from the chrome push button reflects into the driver's eyes. This could lead to possible dangerous driving conditions.
