Consumer Description

MY WINDSHIELD IS FULL OF SPECKS, WHICH IS CAUSING PROBLEMS WITH DRIVING, IF THE SUN HITS THE FRONT WINDOW ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT THE WINDOW. THIS IS MY 3RD HONDA AND I NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE , ONE CAR I HAD FOR 15 YEARS NO WINDSHIELD PROBLEM WITH IT . IT HAPPENS WHEN THE SUN HITS THE WINDOW, BUT ALSO ON A CLOUDY DAY. ITS VERY VISIBLE AND DIFFICULT TO SEE CLEARLY DRIVING OR JUST SITTING LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW.
