THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH TO SEE THE ROAD AT NIGHT OR IF IT RAINING! VERY DANGEROUS, MUST PULL OFF THE ROAD IF RAINING BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT SEE THE ROAD! NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY! HOW MANY PEOPLE NEED TO DIE BEFORE A RECALL HAPPENS?
UCONNECT SYSTEM AND THE SCREEN PLACEMENT IS A DISTRACTION THAT CAUSES THE DRIVER TO LOSE SITE OF THE ROAD AND TRAFFIC. A RELOCATION AND REDUCED SCREEN SIZE COULD HELP ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEM. ONCE THERE WERE LAWS PROHIBITING SUCH DEVISES TO BE VISIBLE TO THE DRIVER WHILE DRIVING???
THE HEATING ELEMENT IN THE WINDSHIELD SHORTED CAUSING EXTREME HEAT AND THE ELEMENT WAS GLOWING. THIS CAUSED THE WINDSHIELD TO BREAK. PIECES OF SHATTERED GLASS WERE INSIDE THE CAR ON THE CENTER CONSOLE AS WELL AS ON THE DASH. BOTH PANES OF GLASS WERE CRACKED, BUT ONLY THE INSIDE SEEMED TO "EXPLODE" CAUSING A CHUCK OF GLASS TO SHOOT LOOSE. THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY A SAFELITE EMPLOYEE WITH 29 YEARS EXPERIENCE. *TR
