NHTSA Complaint #701247 — 1998 BMW MC R SERIES

THE SUN VISORS ON THE VEHICLE CAME WITH VERY DISTRACTING WHITE/YELLOW/BLACK STICKERS ON THEM THAT SEEM TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO REMOVE. I HAVE TRIED TO ORDER VISORS WITHOUT THE STICKERS BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO DO SO IN THE U.S. THE VISORS CONTAIN WARNINGS ABOUT AIRBAGS WHICH I HAVE READ THOROUGLY AND UNDERSTAND (THAT'S WHAT THE OWNER'S MANUAL IS FOR ANYWAY). THE STICKERS CREATE A CONSTANT DISTRACTION FROM THE ROAD WHILE I AM DRIVING, AS I HAVE THIS BRIGHT, GARISH, WHITE/YELLOW/BLACK THING CONSTANTLY JUMPING INTO MY EYES, ESPECIALLY AS THE SUN HITS THEM (THE CAR IS A CONVERTIBLE). I FEEL THAT SOMETHING WHICH DRAWS MY ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ROAD WHILE I AM DRIVING IS A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM, AND WOULD LIKE A SET OF VISORS WITHOUT THIS STICKER ON THEM.
