Consumer Description
HEADS UP DISPLAY KEEPS FALLING FROM ITS SET POSITION. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN MANY REAR END COLLISION TRYING TO RESET MY HEADS UP DISPLAY. NOW I DON'T EVEN USE THE HEADS UP DISPLAY SINCE IT IS SUCH A PIECE OF JUNK. I BELONG TO CORVETTE FORUM AND HAVE HERD FROM DOZENS OF CORVETTE OWNERS WHO ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THESE HEADS UP DISPLAYS SHOULD BE RECALLED DUE TO POOR DESIGN, POOR MATERIALS DURING MANUFACTURING AND CHEAP MANUFACTURING. THE PROBLEM IS THE MIRROR ASSEMBLY IS BEING HINGED FROM TWO PLASTIC PINS ON EACH END OF THE ASSEMBLY. BASED OF THE SIZE AND WAIT OF THE MIRROR THESE PINS SHOULD BE MADE FROM SOME KIND OF METAL MATERIAL. THIS ISSUE IS BEING EXACERBATED BY THE STIFF RIDE OF THE CORVETTE AS YOU DRIVE THE MIRROR IS BEING BOUNCED AROUND AND IS WEARING DOWN THE PINS HOLDING THE MIRROR. *TR
