Consumer Description

SIDE VIEW INDICATOR LIGHTS ARE CONSTANTLY ON, DISRUPTED BY WATER INTRUSION INTO THE SENSORS. INITIAL RECALL STOPPED AT 80,000 MILES. THE LIGHTS CONSTANTLY BEING ON ARE A HAZARD AT NIGHT AS THERE IS INDIRECT LIGHT AFFECTING MY VISION AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. ADDITIONALLY, THE MIRRORS ARE LOOKED AT DIRECTLY WHILE DRIVING AND THE FACT THAT THE INDICATOR LIGHTS ARE ALWAYS ON MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO VIEW THE MIRRORS AT NIGHT. I HAVE NEARLY CAUSED >10 ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS.
