problem #1

Mar 202005

Grand Caravan 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 200 miles
The electronic controls for the outside mirrors are not lit making them impossible to find at night. While driving at night with a passing car in the other lane or having a car close behind, their headlamps shine into the drivers eyes. The driver must use his/her left hand to block the mirror or adjust the mirror so headlamps reflect at a different angle. Since the mirror controls are not lit, nor is anything in that area, it is distracting to the driver to fumble around feeling for the controls. This distraction can cause the vehicle to cross the center line into the passing vehicle. Dealership informed me that these controls are not intended to be lit.
