Honda Cr-v Visibility/wiper Safety Report | Dec 18, 2013
Reported on Dec 18, 2013
| I BOUGHT A 2013 HONDA CR-V VEHICLE A FEW MONTHS AGO. I HAVE NOTICE THAT THE SUN VISORS ARE TOO SHORT. I HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP SEVERAL TIMES AT SUN RISE AND SUN SET BECAUSE I WAS BLINDED BY THE SUN. I HAVE OWNED A HONDA VAN AND A TOYOTA CARE AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WHERE I LIVE. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER IN FRANKFORT, KY AND THEY SAID NO ONE ELSE WAS HAVING THE PROBLEM. I CALL HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE (NATION WIDE) AND THEY SAID NO ONE HAD REPORTED THE PROBLEM AND WANTED ME TO GO BACK TO THE DEALER IN FRANKFORT. I WENT ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND TRIED TO USE AFTER MARKET SOLUTION WHICH IS A VISOR EXTENDER. I AM 5' 8 TALL. I WOULD NEED TO BE OVER 6 FEET IN ORDER FOR THE VISORS TO BE EFFECTIVE. IT EITHER A LOW SEAT PROBLEM OR A VISOR PROBLEM. YOU DON'T NOTICE THIS WHEN YOU FIRST DRIVE THE CAR. I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THE CAR IF I KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS DEFINITELY A HAZARD THAT SHOULD BE CHECKED OUT. | |
