Pontiac Vibe Visibility Windshield Safety Report | Nov 03, 2003



Reported on Nov 03, 2003


ON MY 2004 PONTIAC VIBE, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS LINED WITH A CHROME FINISH THAT REFLECTS INTO THE WINDSHIELD MAKING VISIBILITY REDUCED. RALPH NADER CRITICIZED THIS OVER 30 YEARS AGO WHEN CAR MANUFACTURES WERE USING CHROME FINISHES THAT CAUSED NOTICEABLE GLARE. APPARENTLY, PONTIAC FORGOT DRIVER VISIBILITY WHEN THEY ADDED CHROME AND BRUSHED ALUMINUM TO THEIR INSTRUMENT CLUSTERS. *LA
