Honda Accord Visibility Safety Report | Jan 14, 2013
Reported on Jan 14, 2013
| AFFECTED PARTS: WINDSHIELD AND WIPERS. THIS HAPPENED DURING THE DAY TIME, ABOUT 8:45 AM: A GENTLE RAIN WAS ENCOUNTERED SO I TURNED ON THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS TO SLOW AND STEADY (NOT INTERMITTENT). THE WATER PILED UP ON THE WINDSHIELD TO THE LEFT BY THE DOOR POST AND TO THE RIGHT NEAR THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD AND CONTINUED TO STAY THERE UNTIL I SLOWED DOWN TO TURN OFF THE ROAD. THE RIGHT SIDE (PASSENGER SIDE) WAS CLEAR. THE WATER RESTRICTED MY VIEW TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT (FROM THE LEFT DOOR POST TO ABOUT 10:30 CLOCK POSITION, AND FROM ABOUT 1:30 TO 2:30 POSITION. DANGEROUS IN STANDARD DAYLIGHT, BUT THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS AT NIGHT, OR WITH A MUCH HEAVIER RAIN. THE CAR IS NEW AND THIS IS MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH ENOUGH RAIN THAT I'VE HAD TO TURN THE WIPERS ON STEADY. *TR | |
