Grand Cherokee 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 160 miles
A few weeks ago I purchased a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The mechanicals are fine. But there is a very pronounced reflection of the curved dash in the window which is exactly in the line of vision. It is extremely distracting, if not dangerously intrusive. It could be easily fixed if they decrease the size of the "gutter" around the curved area above the odometer. I have never seen such a pronounced reflection and in such a critical location, and it should be considered a severe design defect. It is pronounced both on sunny and cloudy days.
