Accord 4-cyl

There seems to be some sort of design flaw in the windshield. In moderate to heavy rain the drivers side wiper pulls water back onto the center of the windshield on the return swipe. I find it to be extremely hazardous as I have to crouch down and look through the bottom third of my windshield.

problem #4

Accord 6-cyl

Issue concerns the drivers side, side view mirror which consists of a regular mirror on 3/4 of the surface which is combined with a convex mirror covering the outside 1/4 of the mirror. As cars approach from the rear left and move into view of the mirror, it oftentimes (depending upon the angle of sight) seems as if the other vehicle is moving into my lane. My reaction is to move away which could pose a danger to someone on my right. Additionally, because of the angle of sight, and the distortion of the view, it is difficult to tell exactly how far back the other vehicle is and therefore it makes it difficult to determine if it is safe to move into the next left lane. Finally, looking into the mirror, because of the distortion, makes me momentarily dizzy. This mirror configuration is a potential danger. Others I have spoken with ( 7 drivers) have agreed with my assessment Honda offers no alternative mirror and apparently there is no after market mirror to use in place of the standard equipment.

The driver wiper does not clear the water after hitting it's left stop. It actually pulls water back into view of the driver. During a moderate and heavier rain it affects visibility making it difficult to see the left side of the lane (essentially like not having a wiper on drawing the draw back to the right - it clears as the relative wind breaks up the water). (picture/video available during a light/drizzle rain). This happens at 50+ mph.

Accord

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated the drivers side mirror was the size of a spot mirror and prevented him from having full view on the drivers side of the vehicle. The manufacturer stated that was how the vehicle was designed and it needed to be adjusted. The current mileage was 15.
