About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
This is my wife's vehicle, but while I was driving it, noticed that the visibility to the front left side about 45 degrees to the left is very limited, narrow and almost non-existent while the driver seat is all the way back and with the backrest in a normal position. Is a very difficult to see incoming traffic on a left curve in small rural roads. This is because the narrow width of the front windshield and the wide reinforcement between the driver side door, the small side window and the windshield. Had to lean forward while reducing the speed in order not to hit incoming traffic.
