Consumer Description

COLOR OF THE DASHBOARD, LIGHT GRAY, IS CAUSING A SEVERE GLARE IN WINDSHIELD DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS REGARDLESS OF THE WEATHER. THE DASHBOARD CONTAINS A HORIZONTAL SPLIT THAT RUNS ACROSS THE WIDTH OF THE DASHBOARD. THE FORWARD SECTION OF THE DASHBOARD CONTAINS THE AIR (DEFROSTER) GRILL. THIS CAUSES THE GLARE TO CONTAIN REVERSE IMAGES OF THE AIR GRILL AND THE HORIZONTAL SPLIT LINE. DEALERSHIP EXAMINED VEHICLE AND INFORMED CONSUMER NOTHING CAN BE DONE TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. *AK *JG
