NHTSA Complaint #10492218 — 2008 HONDA CIVIC

I WAS TURNING ON FROM A LEFT LANE INTO A LEFT LANE SEPARATED BY A CEMENT DIVIDER; THE CAR WENT OVER THE CEMENT DIVIDER AND ALMOST OVERTURNED. AT NIGHT WITH NORMAL LIGHTING AND NORMAL SPEED. I HAVE HAD ANOTHER INCIDENT 3 MONTHS PRIOR MAKING A RIGHT TURN. I NOTICED CAREFULLY BY COMPARISON OF THE EXACT POSITION OF SIMILAR MAKE SEDAN CARS; THIS CAR HAS THE MIRROR ATTACHED TO THE DOOR PANELS AND PRESENTS A HAZARD (HAS 2 BLIND SPOTS) MAKING IT ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT WITH LOW BEAM LIGHTS AND OLD PAINTED DIVIDER LINES. IT NEEDS IMMEDIATE ACTION AND RECALL SO THE DEALERS CAN REPOSITION THE MIRRORS. *TR
