Consumer Description

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH A DISTRACTING LIGHT THAT INTERFERES WITH MY NIGHT OPERATION OF THE CAR. AT NIGHT, AWAY FROM LIGHTS, I SEE THE 140 FROM THE SPEEDOMETER AND E FROM THE FUEL GAGE, REFLECTED IN THE WINDSHIELD. THE IMAGE IS UPSIDE DOWN AND THE LIGHT IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS IT IS DEAD AHEAD IN THE FIELD OF TRAVEL. IVE ADJUSTED MY SEAT SO IM AS LOW AS POSSIBLE, THE TOP OF MY HEAD IS ABOUT 2 FROM THE CEILING. I'VE CONTACTED THE DEALER THAT ATTEMPTED TO SERVICE THIS, REGIONAL AND NATIONAL TOYOTA OFFICES (CASE # 200110160534). THEY REPORT "THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE".*AK
