Consumer Description

DT: THE CONSUMER HAS 2005 FORD MUSTANG. WHEN THE CONSUMER WAS DRIVING SOUTH FROM GRASS VALLEY DURING THE DAY, HE COULD NOT SEE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THAT IT WAS DUE TO THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEING LOCATED TOO FAR INTO THE DASHBOARD. THE CONSUMER SAID THAT AT NIGHT HE COULD SEE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FINE. IF THE VEHICLE PASSED INTO SOME TYPE OF SHADE DURING THE DAY THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WOULD BECOME VISIBLE. THE CONSUMER SAYS THAT HE JUST GOT OFF OF HIGHWAY STATE ROUTE 49 AND NOTICED THAT WHEN TRAVELING WITH THE SUN BEHIND OR IN FRONT, HE COULD NOT SEE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. ANYTIME THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SHADED THE INSTRUMENTS COULD NOT BE SEEN EASILY. THIS WAS A SAFETY PROBLEM DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE WHAT SPEED THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT. WHEN CHANGING SPEED ZONES, NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE WHAT SPEED VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT CAUSED THE ISSUE. *AK *SC
