I filed a report on carcomplaints and they said I needed to file one here as well. While driving in direct sunlight, the glare from the dashboard reflects onto the windshield and it obstructs visibility. I've had the windshield replaced (factory glass was chipped and I got a new one), and the glare is still intense. No matter how dusty I let the dashboard get, the reflection is always there in direct sunlight (usually driving East or West). It's annoying, even though I deal with it because I love my car. Is there anything Nissan can do"!?!??!?!?!?!" I really don't want to crash because I can't see through the reflection as well as one should.
