Consumer Description
DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS, THE CHROME AROUND THE VENTS REFLECTS ONTO THE SIDE WINDOWS. THIS CAUSES A DISTRACTION, MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO LOOK INTO THE SIDE MIRRORS. I CONTACTED MAZDA ABOUT THIS, THEY DO NOT APPEAR TO PLAN TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. NOTHING YET HAS HAPPENED TO ME ABOUT THIS, BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT IT MIGHT HAPPEN TO ME OR SOMEONE ELSE. AN EASY FIX WOULD BE TO REPLACE THE SHINY CHROME TRIM WITH A DARKER TRIM. I ATTACHED SOME PICTURES TO SHOW THIS. THE PICTURES DO NOT SHOW EXACTLY HOW BAD IT IS, BUT IT WILL SHOW THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM.
